 the Piedmont Food Fest's celebration of Bay Area diversity with five family 
 friendly short documentaries on Thursday, April 20, beginning at 7:00 pm, 
 in the Ellen Driscoll Playhouse.\n\nThemes range from adoption, racial 
 identity, homelessness, women's issues, education, and gender

 always, ADFS films are FREE.\nThe five films will be shown in the following 
 order and have a total running time of about one hour.\n\nABSOLUTELY NO

 UNIVERSE. In 1967, a young astronomer, Jocelyn Bell, made a breakthrough

 media, the Nobel Prize was awarded to her professor and his boss.\n\nWHAT 
 YOU'LL REMEMBER. Young Bay Area parents determined to give their four 
 children a good life despite moving in and out of homelessness over a 
 period of fifteen years. While awaiting stable, affordable housing, they

 creating a feeling of "home" even when there was no house.\n\nTEXAS STRONG.
