San Francisco Atheist Film Festival
This summer, on Sunday June 28th, 2009, the SF Atheists will be hosting a film festival over at the Roxie Theatre in San Francisco. The event is drawing a lot of attention and is establishing a nice line up of films. Of greatest note is “Deliver Us From Evil” which was a 2006 Academy Award Nominee and is a documentary investigating the allegations of sexual abuse by a Catholic priest between the late 1970s and early 1990s; the rest of the schedule can be found here. It’s going to be a great event, hope to see you there!
