Closed Family And Friends Fundraising EventOrlando
United States
December 17, 2021
Sof Delgado (they/them) is a young student filmmaker and theatrical designer, currently pursuing a major in theatre for youth. They were born and raised in Orlando, FL, and are first-generation Puerto Rican. Along with their beginnings in filmmaking, Sof is a proud set designer, builder, and director for the stage and likes to implement their strong ties to the theater in their writing and directing processes. They thank you for taking the time to view this film.
The family and friends closed viewing of this film was used as a charity event to raise money for the Zebra Coalition of Orlando. In total we raised $400, all of which went to the organization.
I am very passionate about the use of art as a means of not only expression but also social change. I would describe myself as “deliberately extreme” when it comes to my methods of creating art and sharing my messages. This film is quite warm and inviting, I feel it invokes thoughtful conversations and a comforting message. If you are caught off guard enough by a piece of literature or artwork to feel strongly about it then I think it has done its job!
