    Due to a power outage in Ohio City on January 14th, the FREE screening of the award-winning film The Witness has been rescheduled for Saturday January 21st. Our apologies to those who showed up at Talkies and were disappointed. Please join us again on the 21st! 
   
  
  Saturday January 21st at 6:30pm (43 minute film)
  Talkies Film & Coffee Bar
  2521 Market Avenue in Ohio City
  (across from Great Lakes Brewing Co)
   
  The Witness, a 43-minute film that has won six Best Documentary awards at film festivals across America tells the inspiring story of Eddie Lama, a tough construction contractor from Brooklyn, NY whose chance encounter with a kitten completely transforms his life. Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist of the Los Angeles Times, Howard Rosenberg, said: “The Witness is one man’s truth that cries out for mass exposure… may be the most important film about animals ever made.”
   
  Lama's remarkable change in consciousness, from loathing animals to devoting his life to their protection, seems to be contagious. “I feel as though I have been walking around with a bag over my head, and my heart,” said one viewer in Albany, NY. “The difference those 43 minutes made in my perceptions are earthshaking for me.”
   
  For his groundbreaking street level education work, Eddie Lama was honored with the Peace Abbey’s Courage of Conscience Award. Past honorees have included Mother Teresa and the Dalai Lama. "In my lifetime,” said Lama as he accepted the award, “I have been both the oppressor and the oppressed, both the fomenter of discord and the advocate for peace, both the perpetrator and the victim. But most significantly, I have been both the silence and the voice. It is the human voice that is the primary tool for change.” 
   
  “The Witness touches something very deep in audience members,” says producer LaVeck, “because it shows how any person, from any background, can change. Eddie Lama is living proof of something that we all hope and pray is true, that one person’s change of heart can change the world.” LaVeck and the film’s director, Jenny Stein, founded their non-profit production company Tribe of Heart, to fill an unmet need for films that explore the human potential to respond to injustice with creativity and non-violence. Tribe of Heart’s second film, Peaceable Kingdom, has won 4 festival awards to date and was an official selection of the 2005 Cleveland International Film Festival.
