Stone Soup Presents: A Free Screening of Many Beautiful Things
What: This is a new, acclaimed documentary about Lilias Trotter, a British painter and missionary during the Victorian era who was told she could be England's greatest painter but who gave up the dream of fame to travel to Africa. The film is remarkably beautiful and the story gripping and transformative! Watch the trailer here: https://manybeautifulthings.com. The animators have taken her watercolors and brought them into 3D life. And Michelle Dockery, the voice of Mary in Downton Abbey, is the voice of Lilias in the film. After the film, we will discuss the major themes: vocation, art, creation, and service.
When: Sunday, August 7th, 7-9pm
Where: The Sanctuary at Saluda UMC, 153 Greenville St., Saluda
Bring: A dessert to share (optional...come regardless) and a friend or two! The film is very accessible to those of all faiths.
