ABOUT THE FILM
An instant hit, CODA was met by audiences at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival with an absolutely rapturous response, earning a staggering four awards (U.S. Dramatic Audience Award, Special Jury Award for Ensemble Cast, Directing Award, and Grand Jury Prize). This incredible ensemble cast brings to life the story of Ruby, the only hearing member of a deaf fishing family in Gloucester, Massachusetts. As Ruby struggles to find her place in her family and her world, her gorgeous singing voice brings her into her own. Siân Heder’s heartwarming, exuberant follow-up to Tallulah (2016 Sundance Film Festival) brings us inside the idiosyncratic rhythms and emotions of a deaf family — something we’ve rarely seen on-screen. In developing CODA, which stands for “Child of Deaf Adults,” Heder was determined to tell the story authentically with deaf actors. Her writing and direction — layered, naturalistic, frank, and funny — finds perfect expression in richly drawn characters and a uniformly outstanding cast, led by breakout newcomer Emilia Jones. Film is rated PG-13.

SOBRE LA PELÍCULA
Un éxito instantáneo, CODA fue recibido por el público en el Sundance Film Festival 2021 con una respuesta absolutamente entusiasta, ganando cuatro premios asombrosos (U.S. Dramatic Audience Award, Special Jury Award for Ensemble Cast, Directing Award, and Grand Jury Prize). Este increíble elenco le da vida a la historia de Ruby, la única persona oyente de su familia de pescadores sordos en Gloucester, Massachusetts. Mientras Ruby lucha por encontrar su lugar en su familia y su mundo, su voz hermosa le permite encontrar un lugar propio. El conmovedor y exuberante seguimiento de Siân Heder de Tallulah (Sundance Film Festival 2016) nos lleva al interior de los ritmos y emociones idiosincrásicas de una familia sorda, algo que rara vez hemos visto en la pantalla. Al desarrollar CODA, que significa “hijo de adultos sordos”, Heder estaba decidida a contar la historia en una manera auténtica con actores sordos. Su escritura y dirección – estratificada, naturalista, franca y divertida – encuentra la expresión perfecta en personajes ricamente dibujados y un elenco sobresaliente, dirigido por Emilia Jones. La película está clasificada PG-13.

PAIN AND POSSIBILITY: A COMMUNITY ART SERIES
A group of local artists present a series of public art projects across Salt Lake City. Through mural painting, sculpture, dance, video and other media, this diverse group of artists that include BIPOC, LGBTQ and Allies, are helping our community engage with today’s reality while reimagining tomorrow.
We are living in an historic moment and we do not yet know where it will lead us. Like all moments, it is complex. Fear, pain, and isolation exist side-by-side with hope, healing, and solidarity. Deep-rooted injustices have been ripped into the light of day by a global pandemic that is disproportionately ravaging communities of color, Indigenous communities, and communities of immigrant and refugee background like those on Salt Lake’s west side. At the same time, a massive uprising is forcing society to reckon with its 400-year history of murdering Black people in the name of law and justice. Calls to defund the police and abolish prisons are gaining new ground, along with intersectional struggles like the fight for Black Trans lives.
Artists and cultural workers have important roles to play this moment of pain and possibility. Sugar Space Foundation, Mestizo Institute of Culture and Arts, and a collective of community partners are joining together to provide a platform for artists to engage with this painful present in all its complexity and contribute to collective healing and action. The following artists projects were selected through a competitive application process.
We take very seriously the challenges of engaging in the arts during COVID-19. All projects ensure physical distancing and other health precautions. All projects are structured with plans in order to keep our community safe.
Projects take place between August 22-September 6. See below for info.
