“We Are Columbine” Screening & Q&A

Mar 4, 2024

1:30pm – 3:05pm CT

We Are Columbine is the first film to offer insider access behind and beyond the headlines of Columbine. The documentary highlights the stories of four freshmen students who survived one of the deadliest school shootings in United States history at Columbine High School in 1999. Director Laura Farber, who was also a freshman during the shootings, sensitively captures her classmates' unique perspectives during an unprecedented walk- through of the school itself, shedding light on the issues mass shootings represent to those affected and how to address them. When we can't change the violence in America, we can change how it affects us.
