The Frida Cinema, with support from the Doreen D. Marshall Fund for Youth, presents our monthly Sensory Friendly Screenings series. Guests at these special film screenings can expect to find our auditorium lights on, our sound levels lowered, and the rare invitation to NOT sit still at the movies! For once, don’t expect to get hushed if sitting still is a challenge — we invite our Sensory Friendly Screening guests to get up, dance, and move about the auditorium if that’s what you feel like doing! These screenings will be presented the last Saturday and Sunday of every month, starting at 2pm.
Join us for the 2021 animated hit, Encanto! The tale of an extraordinary family, the Madrigals, who live hidden in the mountains of Colombia, in a magical house, in a vibrant town, in a wondrous, charmed place called an Encanto. The magic of the Encanto has blessed every child in the family—every child except one, Mirabel. But when she discovers that the magic surrounding the Encanto is in danger, Mirabel decides that she, the only ordinary Madrigal, might just be her exceptional family’s last hope.
Celebrated for its heartfelt ode to culture and family, Encanto is an unforgettable musical experience.
We thank the Doreen D. Marshall Fund for Youth for supporting this series, and the Orange County Community Foundation for their partnership.
