DESCRIPTION:Film Arts Foundation and Yerba Buena Center for the Arts presents:\nTRUE 
 STORIES: sneak previews of new documentaries\n\nMY CHILD: MOTHERS OF 
 WAR\n\nBy Angeliki Giannakopoulos (2005)\n\nWhen we hear about soldiers and 
 casualties in war, much too often we perceive these human beings merely as 
 statistics.  Capturing the words and emotions of the mothers whose sons and 
 daughters are fighting and dying in Iraq, director Angeliki Giannakopoulos 
 puts a human face on these soldiers in this extraordinarily powerful 
 portrait of love, suffering and our common humanity. \n\nThese courageous 
 mothers of our country’s soldiers are still mothers of the sons and 
 daughters they’ve raised for nearly two decades. Sons and daughters they 
 raised to play baseball, to go to the prom, to get married and have 
 children of their own, but not to risk their lives…far from home.\nMY 
 CHILD explores how these mothers manage to get through each day knowing 
 that bullets could be destroying the “center of their universe.”\n\nAnd 
 then there are the other mothers. The ones whose children come back in 
 pieces…or not at all. How do they carry on when their precious children 
 return to them, somehow less than when they last saw them…or after the 
 messengers of death, dressed in uniform have shown up at their 
 door?\n\nWednesday, August 16th, 2006, 7:30 PM\nYerba Buena Center for the 
 Arts Screening Room, 701 Mission (at 3rd Street)\n\nTickets: $8 General
