This is it, the last day of Dances With Films (20th June - 30th June 2024) LA edition and @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ has you covered for 'Day 11'!!!

Now, this film / short isn't actually screening today, but it was so good, inventive, and meaningful, we had to hit you with a feature. Especially when Kelli McNeil-Yellen had a hook-up for a sit-down with the inventive mind behind the work! And what a layered & rich discussion it was, obviously we talked about the making of the film, but also touch upon subjects like sustainability, climate change, corporate manipulation, and collaboration. This was the perfect way to bring our LA coverage to a close....don't miss it!!! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/v2d8t3JzrKU

'Story Of The Sun' is written & directed by Phillip Gladkov, and narrated by Tsukuru Fors. This is the first stop-motion animation in the world made entirely from birch bark. It shares the tale of how the first humans discovered fire, changing the world forever. It’s especially meaningful that this film is made from birch bark—a material used for starting fires since the Neanderthal era.

It's a movie for both children and adults, and filled with humor, valuable lessons, and emotionally touching moments.

Today we have:
