We're excited to announce The Arc of Arizona, Inc. + Chandler Gilbert Arc Sprout Film Festival will be returning on Friday, April 26, 2024, featuring 3 showings! The event is hosted at and sponsored by Pollack Cinemas in Tempe!
Inspiring audiences, promoting inclusion and supporting transformative filmmaking as an integral part of social change.
The Sprout Film Festival focuses exclusively on films that celebrate the diverse lives and creativity of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD), strives to challenge assumptions and breakdown stereotypes. By introducing powerful, thought-provoking films from around the world to new and ever-more inclusive audiences, we promote greater acceptance, celebrate difference, and light the spark to help make the invisible, visible.
Sprout films feature actors whose lives reflect the joys and challenges their characters face. These are not "star" vehicles for well-known actors to portray individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities; Rather, all roles depicting persons with disabilities are played by persons with actual disabilities.
Tickets go on sale April 1st!
