18 2007 COMPETITIONS The 31st Cleveland International Film Festival
GREG GUND MEMORIAL
STANDING UP
FILM COMPETITION
Sponsored by
The Hip Hop Project
The selections included in Standing Up
are films with a conscience. Standing Up
celebrates social justice and activism by
presenting films with messages that cannot
and should not be ignored. Thanks to the
generosity of The George Gund Foundation,
Standing Up will remain as a permanent
piece of our Festival programming. An
endowment grant in memory of Greg Gund
has secured not only the continuation
of the Standing Up section, but also a
$5,000 cash prize associated with
Standing Up (the winner to be determined
by audience vote). Standing Up honors
those with a different view of the world
we live in and the continual fight to make
it a better world. Standing Up honors the
memory of Greg Gund.

Please join us on Tuesday, March 20th for a special screening of CHANGE
OF ADDRESS. We will be changing addresses that night, so don’t join us at
Tower City Cinemas. Instead, the evening will kick off with a pre-film reception
from 5:00 p.m. until 6:30 p.m. at Nighttown, located at the top of Cedar Hill in
the fashionable Cedar-Fairmount neighborhood in Cleveland Heights (parking is
free). All of the food at the reception will be provided by the evening’s co-host,
Zagara’s Marketplace. Then you can hop into your car and drive a few minutes
up Cedar Road to the Cedar Lee Theatre for the 7:15 PM screening of the film.
Afterwards you can enjoy dinner specials back at Nighttown. You must have
a Film Festival pass or CHANGE OF ADDRESS ticket for admission to the
pre-party and the film.
