Seen Thus Far at the San Francisco International Film Festival…

Recommended from what I’ve seen at the San Francisco International Film Festival, hopefully coming soon to a theatre near you.

+The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill: Documentary on a flock of wild parrots that live in the Telegraph Hill neighborhood and the man who takes care of them. Sweet, hopeful.

+Everyday People: Fiction film about a Jewish deli in Brooklyn closing down and the effect it will have on its employers, patrons and the community. Powerful, sad, and painfully relevant.

+Shirley Chisholm ’72: Unbossed & Unbought. Shirley Chisholm was the first woman and person of color to run for president. This documentary looks at her campaign, a fascinating, charged, moment in American political history.

+God is Brazilian. God needs a vacation. He heads to Brazil looking for a stand-in while he’s away. It take a while to find one.

Today at the VBT: An audioblog interview with Danyel thanks to George Kelly at his blog.

Audio is brand new for the tour. Thanks guys!

Discussion of the tour continues at Readerville.
