"A Bridge to Life" to premiere April 18th

Chris Farina’s new film A Bridge to Life to premiere at Tom Tom Festival in Charlottesville on April 18

A Bridge to Life, the new documentary from Rosalia Films’ Chris Farina, will premiere at Charlottesville’s Paramount Theatre on April 18 at 7 p.m. as part of the Tom Tom Festival – a community event focused on interconnection and our shared future.

A Bridge to Life is a moving portrait of a Virginia-based organization that for years has been working to change and save the lives of men dealing with life-threatening addiction issues. Interwoven throughout the film is the inspiring story of Pastor William Washington, the resilient founder and executive director of the Bridge Ministry, and his triumph over trauma, homelessness, and addiction.

Chris’ mission is to spread the word about the significant work done by the Bridge Ministry to both sustain their efforts as well as to inspire others across the country and beyond to consider replicating this work in their own communities.

Following the film, a discussion and Q&A will occur with Chris Farina, William Washington, and individuals who have been impacted by the ministry.

Tickets are available now and can be purchased at the Tom Tom Foundation website. Ticket proceeds contribute to The Bridge Ministry's vital work and the broader dissemination of the film. They are offered on a sliding-scale basis.
