DESCRIPTION:Movie, Q&A and Dinner $45.00, Movie and Q&A $25.00, More if you can, less 
 if you can't.\n\nAs we approach our 3rd Year Anniversary and get closer 
 to obtaining our Official Federal 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Status we are 
 working on the educational part of our mission. We hope to show the 
 community that most of the people that are living on the streets are not 
 unlike ourselves, other than life circumstances.\n\nWe will be presenting 
 full length documentaries on individuals that have become homeless. Our 
 first event is the award winning movie "Queen Mimi". This is not only an 
 interesting and entertaining movie, it will be a day you will not want to 
 miss.\n\nThe Berkeley Premiere of the award-winning film "QUEEN 
 MIMI," \nfollowed by a Q&A with the director, Yaniv Rokah.\nDinner 
 follows, both vegan and meat lasagna, cooked by the famous CTH 
 Chefs.\n\nMOVIE SYNOPSIS\nMarie “Mimi” Haist defied her adulterous 
 husband and moved onto the streets in her 50s, living in parking lots and 
 doorways until finding her “home” one stormy night between rows of 
 washers in a Californian laundromat. Encouraged to stay by a more than 
 generous laundry owner, Mimi’s ‘the past is the past’ philosophy 
 endeared her to regular fluff and fold clients and, after more than 20 
 years, Mimi has made some unlikely friends, ranging from local loves to 
 Hollywood A-listers Zach Galifianakis and Renee Zellweger. Filmed over 5 
 years by barista/actor/director Yaniv Rokah while he worked at a cafe 
 across the street,\n\nQueen Mimi is the story of an unlikely hero. Now 90+, 
 Mimi reminds us to never give in and never give up, and that if you ever 
 find yourself in the gutter, to never stop looking at the 
 stars.\n\nPROGRAM (Times are approximate)\n3:00PM: Doors open\n3:30PM:
