The Muhammad Ali Center Metamorphosis Film Series, in partnership with ITVS Community Cinema, is proud to present:

The Revolutionary Optimists by Maren Grainger-Monsen and Nicole Newnham

In the poorest neighborhoods of Calcutta, a lawyer turned social entrepreneur is empowering young girls and boys to take an active role in transforming their own lives. Through arts programs and hands-on activities like mapping their own communities, these young girls and boys have brought clean drinking water to and improved sanitation in their slums.

Doors open at 5:30pm. The film will begin at 6:00pm in the Muhammad Ali Center Auditorium and will be followed by a brief discussion and/or education activity. For more information or to reserve your seat, please contact Tytianna Smith at tsmith@alicenter.org.
