Breakout! at the 2009 Sprockets Film Festival

I’m back home in B.C. after the amazing Sprockets film festival and premier screening of Breakout. What an experience! I loved Sprockets. We saw great movies from all over the world and met and made great friends with international producers and directors.

Breakout was not only super fun but educational and motivational too. There were about 200 students attending the screening and it was dead quiet in the theatre. Everybody was completely focused on the show. I loved the facts about Canadian social activism. I am proud to be from this amazing generous country! Being able to participate on the panel was a wonderful experience because I was able to educate others about the need for education of girls in Afghanistan and hopefully motivate others to take action in changing our world into a better place.

Thanks Break out for spreading the word about Education!

Education=peace

* WATCH THE BREAKOUT! "QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS" SESSION AT 2009 SPROKETS FILM FESTIVAL!

Breakout! in Calgary, Canada

Over 1000 students attended the world premier on February 19th, 2009 at the Reel Fun Film Festival in Calgary.

Following the screening, students from St. Elizabeth Seton in Edgemont, Calgary held a bake sale and bottle drive to raise funds for a shelter.

“Just to let you know The films have inspired my class to do something. We are doing a bake sale and a bottle drive with the proceeds going to the “Inn From the Cold”. Some of the girls are going to make little fleece blankets filled with a few toiletries and a toy to give to the kids that come in at “inn From the Cold”.
