Documentary filmmaking can be a purpose-driven act for filmmakers with multiple bottom lines, including social change. Activism increasingly relies on video content to bear witness and spread the message. What lies at the intersection of these forms? And how do journalists and citizen-journalists situate themselves in this rapidly changing terrain? Emily Verellen of the Fledgling Fund takes on Ferguson Firsthand as a unique transmedia case study and invites crowd participation in strategizing how that project will find its audience, from YOUR house to the statehouse. Ticket required, or free admission via the Q. PRESENTED BY THE FLEDGLING FUND.

A bright-and-early tradition at T/F, the True Life Run invites all runners and walkers to start Saturday, March 7, with a mad dash through the streets of downtown Columbia. The 5k run/walk will start at 9am in Flat Branch Park and take in the landmarks of our fair city, offering a handful of eclectic adventures along the way. In addition to prizes from local businesses, we'll also offer one Lux pass to next year’s True/False to the male and female winners. Winners will be determined by a combination of course time and successful participation in the harebrained challenges along the way.

The entry fee of $25 includes the run, official T-shirt, and breakfast from Harold's Doughnuts, B&B Bagels, and Kaldi's Coffee. Online registration for the True Life Run ends at 10pm on Friday, March 6. You can register on site at 8am on Saturday, March 7, for a day-of fee of $30. Proceeds from the Run will be donated to the True Life Fund.

Breakfast is served bright and early featuring tasty morsels from the new brunch menu at Jina Yoo’s Asian Bistro and all the coffee you can drink courtesy of Kaldi's. Once you’re fully awake, take in an early-morning mindbending doc. Ticket required, reservable by Lux, Silver Circle, and Super Circle passholders. All passholders can Q for the film.
