🎬 Community Film Screening: I'm Jit and I'm an Alcoholic

📅 Sunday, 26 July | 🕑 2:00–5:00 PM

In many families, we are taught to protect our reputation, stay strong, and keep personal struggles within the home. But when it comes to addiction, silence can leave people feeling isolated and without support.

Behind many smiles are stories that are never told. Stories of pain, loss, recovery, and hope.

Join us for a screening of the award-winning documentary I'm Jit and I'm an Alcoholic—a powerful film that gives a voice to those whose experiences are too often hidden because of stigma and shame.

This is not just a film. It is an invitation to start conversations that many of us have avoided for far too long. By listening with compassion rather than judgement, we can help create a community where people feel safe to ask for help and where families feel supported instead of alone.

Together, we can begin to break the silence around addiction and replace it with understanding, empathy, and hope.

Everyone is welcome.
