Great film and good cause

Join the Majestic Theatre, Pomona for a fun night of film, Ugandan food, music and dance on 19 January from 6-9pm and help raise money for VOLSET, a Ugandan non-government organisation.

The Gods Must Be Crazy is a charming 80’s classic that reveals the follies of the modern world from the perspective of a native Kalahari bushman. The tribal people in a remote African desert live a happy life, but it is torn to pieces when a Coca-Cola bottle falls from a plane. With the villages fighting over the strange foreign object, tribal leader Xi decides to take the bottle back to the Gods to restore peace.

You will be in for a treat with the delicious Ugandan (vegan) dinner for sale for $10 and African drums and other African musical instruments to play along with Ugandan music and dance. Bar will be open. African goods for sale.

Cost is $15 ($10 concession) online (www.trybooking.com/book/sessions?eid=449701) or $20 ($10 concession) at the door.

For more information on VOLSET visit volsetugandaltd.yolasite.com/. The funds raised will go towards building a second Aussie Chook House for laying hens to be built at the school so that the children can have eggs in their diet, learn a little about animal husbandry, and further, excess eggs will be sold (or given) to the community.
