“Summer Wars” - In this 2009 animated film, a rogue AI threatens to take over and dismantle OZ: a virtual reality world that the entire real world heavily depends on. When the threat becomes existential for humanity, a family bands together to combat the AI but it takes the support of an entire populace to fight back.
SAME URBAN WASTELAND LOCATION: From downtown, head south on Soquel Avenue. At Riverside, by the Royal Taj, turn right. Follow the path down to the sandy area under the bridge.
Note: Let’s take care of the spot and pack-it-in-pack-it-out. When the film is over please be respectful of the neighbors when leaving and use library voices.
PLUS thrilling short films, an intermission, great company and a guaranteed good time!
BRING blankets, pillows, anything you need to be comfortable in foldy metal chairs indoors, friends, snacks to share. Donations to support the project are more than welcome - and notaflof* so not expected!. (*no one turned away for lack of funds).

SubRosa is part of the Hub Community Center, in downtown Santa Cruz, CA which is the unceded homelands of the Awaswas-speaking Ohlone people known as the Uypi, who stewarded these lands since time immemorial. Centuries of colonial violence led to the removal and displacement of the Uypi. The Amah Mutsun Tribal Band, comprised of the descendants of indigenous people taken to missions Santa Cruz and San Juan Bautista during Spanish colonization of the Central Coast, is today working hard to restore traditional stewardship practices on these lands and heal from historical trauma.
