Twelve Pianos Documentary Film Screening

Enjoy a special screening of Dean Mermell's documentary film Twelve Pianos, followed by Q&A with Dean Mermell and Mauro ffortissimo of Sunset Piano. Your ticket purchase for Twelve Pianos goes directly to supporting Flower Piano 2017, a privately funded collaboration between San Francisco Botanical Garden Society and Sunset Piano.

This is the first public screening of Twelve Pianos since it made its world debut at the Green Film Festival in April. Twelve Pianos is a story of music, culture, and poetry, determined to survive against all odds. Like beautiful weeds growing unnoticed through cracks in the sidewalk, the film showcases everyday superstars who walk among us, with a deep passion for the arts that will not fit neatly into a box. Filmmaker Dean Mermell and a small, dedicated crew capture the incredible sights and sounds of this unusual passion project, in a film that asks: As the world rushes headlong into an unknown future, what good things from the past are worth saving?

Space is limited.
