In her estimation, the two-day festival serves an important purpose.

“I think in today’s world, it’s truly important we get to know other cultures more and are not ignorant about what other people are doing around the world,” Seeling said.

The Evolution International Film Festival is scheduled to take place on Friday, July 26, and Saturday, July 27, at the Los Angeles Film School, located at 6363 West Sunset Blvd. Ticket prices start at $10. To find out more about the festival, visit the website online.
