Cal Poly Pride Alliance Holds Free Film Showing March 1

SAN LUIS OBISPO -- The Cal Poly Pride Alliance will be hosting a special
preview screening of the film “The Graffiti Artist” at 8:30 p.m. on
Tuesday, March 1st.

The screening is free and open to the public and will be held in the
Rotunda (Room 213) of the Orfalea College of Business Building. Metered
parking is available nearby on California Boulevard.

The film has been mesmerizing the international film circuit from Berlin
to Seattle and from Rio to Athens with its luscious visuals,
iconoclastic content, and distinctive soundtrack composed by celebrated
Paris DJ Kid Loco, said Maya Andlig of Cal Poly’s Student Life and
Leadership.

"The Graffiti Artist" examines and gives voice to subcultures within our
society which challenge and reject the "mainstream," she said. The film
looks at the nature of such social areas as young gay interpersonal
relationships, ethics, consumerism and social responsibility.
