prize-winning film COLMA: THE MUSICAL with a party to follow. If you'd
like to come, please RSVP to info@... by noon on 12/12 with
COLMA in the subject and your name and that you heard of this event
through Yahoo Groups in the body.
Richard Wong, the film's San Francisco-based director, will be in
attendance, along with H. P. Mendoza, the film's lead actor,
screenwriter and songwriter. Come early for complimentary Peroni beer

in a series that explores the social experience of the movies. You
must RSVP to get in! You must be 21+ to attend!
COLMA: THE MUSICAL
In the town of Colma, just south of San Francisco, the dead outnumber
the living one thousand to one. Here, one wouldn't expect teenagers to
burst out in song, or dance around cemeteries and streets. But in
COLMA: THE MUSICAL, that's exactly what happens, accompanied by enough
catchy melodies, thoughtfully funny lyrics, and poetic teenage
protagonists to compete with the best of Broadway. Best pals Rodel,
Billy, and Maribel find themselves in a state of limbo; fresh out of
high school, they are just beginning to explore a new world of
part-time mall jobs and crashing college parties. As newfound
revelations and romances challenge their relationships with one
another and their parents, the trio must assess what to hold onto and
how to best follow their dreams.
The film won the Special Jury Prize at the 2006 San Francisco
International Asian American Film Festival. See what the hype is all
about.
SF360 FILM/CLUB is a movie and party series exploring the social
