The House of the Seven Gables, a colonial mansion turned non-profit museum in Salem Massachusetts, will host a New Immigrant and Refugee Visions Screen&Discuss event September 19 6-7pm, in-person.
Michael Sheridan is one of the best teachers one could hope to have. He has a genuine commitment to facilitating students’ ability to realize their vision, which is backed by a deep understanding of technology and technique. I had the pleasure of hiring Michael to teach over twenty years, and student reviews were always excellent.
The Art Ranger, aka artist Melissa Smedley, produced a podcast on the work and sounds of CSFilm. It includes an interview with CSFilm director, Michael Sheridan, and a sound collage from the films of CSFilm filmmakers and trainees.
Afghan filmmakers and writers in exile spoke to their and their country’s trauma since the fall of the country to the Taliban. They shared their recent experiences and the films they made during Community Supported Film’s training and mentoring project: The Fruit of Our Labor – Afghan Perspectives in Film.

They shared their recent experiences and the films they made during Community Supported Film’s training and mentoring project: The Fruit of Our Labor – Afghan Perspectives in Film. Michael Sheridan, CSFilm’s Director, spoke about the ongoing work of CSFilm to help evacuate and resettle Afghans and what the community can do to help.
In a very emotional experience, the event included the participation via Zoom of two recent evacuees and the project’s translator and coordinator. Qasem joined from Iran, Aqeela from France, and jamal from Canada.
Contact Community Supported Film if you would like to organize a Screen&Discuss with the Afghan films in your community.
These two films stimulated a timely discussion about the current worldwide refugee crisis and the immediate challenges facing Afghans and Haitians due to recent man-made and natural disasters. November 10th, 6-7:30pm EST, Online
Thank you to @theDocYard & @BrattleTheatre for donating all proceeds from benefit screening to CSFilm Fund for Afghan Evac and Resettle. They raised over $500!
