During her visit, she'll meet with different provider groups to talk about family homelessness in this area. She'll also be interviewed by local media about the film and its local relevance, and about her life as an acclaimed filmmaker (and daughter of Rep. Nancy Pelosi).
 
A limited number of free tickets may be available at the door for the 7:00 pm, January 20th screening at SIFF Cinema, McCaw Hall; those tickets will be first-come, first-served. Learn more here.
