SUMMARY:Halfway to Zen (film)
DESCRIPTION:Gesa Power House Theatre presents a screening of the independent film Halfway to Zen on Friday\, April 30 at 7:00PM with an encore screening on Wednesday\, May 5 at 7:00PM. \n \nHalfway to Zen is a drama about a fractured family coming together to raise their collective middle fingers at the odds they’ve each been dealt. \nAfter release from prison\, Nick is trying to walk a straight line by taking care of his father\, Pop\, who’s forgotten what a lousy dad he once was. When Nick is reunited with his 11 year-old daughter Edie (who insists she’s now Eddie) and his ex-wife\, Vick (who’s engaged to a woman)\, this ragtag team of bulletproof misfits has to relearn everything they know about what makes a family. \nHalfway to Zen was produced by Wonder Wheel Productions a family-driven independent film company consisting of Toby Poser\, John Adams\, and daughters Lulu and Zelda Adams. The small family creative team does it all: casting writing\, videography\, acting\, directing\, editing\, and film crew. The family have been making films since 2010\, each successful in its own right on the film festival circuit. Halfway to Zen\, their fourth film\, is unrated\, but contains strong language. \nGeneral admission seating ($15 Adults\, $10 Students) are available online or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500. Seating for each screening is capped at 100 patrons\, as allowed under Phase 2 of Washington’s Safe Start Plan.

SUMMARY:Beyond the Glass (documentary)
DESCRIPTION:Gesa Power House Theatre presents a screening of local documentary film Beyond the Glass on Wednesday\, May 12 at 7:00PM. (There will not be a Friday\, May 7 screening due to conflicts with Spring Release Weekend.) This screening will be accompanied by an exclusive pre-recorded conversation between Director of Film Programming Warren Etheredge and the filmmakers. The runtime on this event will be about an hour. \nBeyond the Glass was produced by Whitman College graduate Jackson Clough about local residents Rick and Mosseta Brown\, who operate a local boxing club for at-risk youth in the area. When Rick Brown emerged from decades of drug addiction and run-ins with the law\, he was determined to forge a new path forward as a man of faith and as a productive citizen. He and his wife opened Rick’s Boxing Club in College Place\, where they strive to give kids an alternative to getting involved with drugs and gangs. \nRick’s Boxing Club offers free memberships to students ages 8 through college as long as they maintain at least a “C” average in their school courses and agree to perform some community service projects. \nGeneral admission seating ($15 Adults\, $10 Students) are available online or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500. Seating for each screening is capped at 100 patrons\, as allowed under Washington’s Safe Start Plan. Additional precautions including required mask use and physical distancing between households will be observed. \nWant to receive early notice and access to ticket sales? Join the +Power Club (highest priority) or sign up for our e-mail list! \n\nPower House Movies are powered by what you can’t get anywhere else in the Walla Walla Valley. Not only do we showcase award-winning festival favorites\, feature-length narratives\, documentaries\, and undiscovered gems\, we pair them with exclusive content from the movie makers themselves – most often in conversation with our Director of Film Programming\, Warren Etheredge. Join us for a night out in our historic venue\, and enjoy a glass of wine with the show. It’s an experience worth leaving the couch for! \n\nSeason Sponsors: \n         \nKAPP-KVEW TV\, Pacific Power\, Northwest Public Broadcasting\, Hayden Homes \nAdditional support provided by:\nWalla Walla County\, Port of Walla Walla\, City of Walla Walla \nEach Coldwell Banker Office is Independently Owned and Operated

SUMMARY:The Paper Tigers (film)
DESCRIPTION:Gesa Power House Theatre presents a screening of just-released action-comedy feature film The Paper Tigers on Friday\, May 21 at 7:00PM with an encore on Wednesday\, May 26 at 7:00PM. Each Power House Movie screening is accompanied by an exclusive conversation between Director of Film Programming Warren Etheredge and the filmmakers. \n \nAs teenagers\, kung fu disciples Danny (Alain Uy)\, Hing (Ron Yuan)\, and Jim (Mykel Shannon Jenkins) were inseparable. They trained together\, fought together\, and planned to become the next great martial arts masters. Life\, as they say\, had other plans. Fast forward 25 years\, and each has grown into a washed-up\, middle-aged man\, seemingly one kick away from pulling a hamstring – and not at all preoccupied with thoughts of martial arts or childhood best friends. But when their old master is murdered\, the trio reunites\, soon learning that avenging their sifu will require conquering old grudges (and a dangerous hitman still armed with ample knee cartilage) if they are to honorably defend his legacy. \n“Yes\, there are plenty of terrific fight scenes\, but The Paper Tigers offers big laughs\, easily identifiable characters and plenty of insight on living with your mistakes and imperfections…”\n– Matthew Kiernan\, Fantasia Film Festival \nThe Paper Tigers received its world premiere at the Fantasia Film Festival and had its limited theatrical release on May 7. \n\nWinner: Special Jury Award for Best Editing\, Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival\nWinner: Audience Award\, Boston Asian American Film Festival\n\nFilmmaker Tran Quoc Bao (writer/director/editor) was mentored by master action director Corey Yuen (The Transporter)\, who instilled Bao with an approach to action that draws on story and character\, and doesn’t rely solely on spectacle. His editing credits include Cho Lon\, one of Southeast Asia’s highest-budgeted action blockbusters\, and Jackpot\, a heartfelt comedy selected as Vietnam’s official entry for Best Foreign Film at the 2016 Academy Awards. \nIn celebration of Gesa Power House Theatre’s 10th Anniversary (on May 19)\, tickets to this weekend’s events are priced at only $10 per screening or block of short films! Please join us in celebrating the first decade of events at the Power House as we look forward to the next 10 years of art-filled performances. \nGeneral admission tickets are available online or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500.

SUMMARY:Best of the 2020 Walla Walla Movie Crush
DESCRIPTION:The Walla Walla Movie Crush was prepared for the fourth annual festival of short films in July 2020\, however\, the pandemic had other plans for Walla Walla. Nearly a year later\, we are now able to be open for socially-distanced events and are delighted to share the highlights from 2020’s cancelled festival. Gesa Power House Theatre presents a special “Best of the 2020 Walla Walla Movie Crush” screening event on Saturday\, May 22. \n \nJust like the annual 3-day festival in July\, screenings will be arranged in one-hour thematic segments of short films as follows: \nBlock #1 (1PM-5PM): \n1PM: AFTER-ACTION REVIEW\npresented by Micki & Bryce Breitenstein \nPoliticians provide reasons for going to war\, historians discuss the geo-political impacts. Too few\, however\, are concerned or charged with evaluating what happens to the women and men who serve and to those who survive war. Here\, American veterans from multiple conflicts and Korean children recall what happened\, question why it did and wonder how to move forward healthfully. \n2PM: MORAL ACCOUNTING \nUltimately\, we may or may not be judged by a higher power\, but while we are alive\, it’s up to each of us to hold ourselves and others accountable\, spiritually as much as legally. Here\, war crimes\, acts of censorship\, xenophobic policies and climate crises are addressed by individuals eager to balance the books and pull us out of the moral red. \n3PM: PHONING IT IN \nWe all have our hang-ups\, but our attachment to our smartphones may be moving from habit to addiction. Can we live without them? Here\, New Yorkers and Californians\, siblings and spouses\, technophobes and influencers — heck\, even Green Day! —all try to put down their devices or be put down for them. \n4PM: BLACK LIVES & WHITE LIES \nDr. Martin Luther King\, Jr. said: “Three hundred years of humiliation\, abuse and deprivation cannot be expected to find voice in a whisper.” Thus\, a cry becomes a shout becomes a protest becomes a revolution. Those who shout\, eventually\, will be heard. Those who remain quiet\, ultimately\, will lose their voices. Here\, BIPOC women and men spill their stories\, while white folks whisper theirs… \nBlock #2 (7PM-10PM): \n7PM: ANGER MISMANAGEMENT \nDo men ever learn how to deal with their emotions properly? Evidence suggests that many men have no idea what do wither their feelings and certainly haven’t found enough outlets for their ire. Here\, scientists and students\, office workers and buskers\, an actor and an entrepreneur all release steam in less than healthy\, though sometimes humorous ways. \n8PM: AND THE BEAT GOES ON? \nIf music calms the savage breast\, what happens when it stops? If we fail to find our daily rhythms\, can there only be discord? Here\, a municipal school district\, a bickering couple\, an exiled punk\, a troubled drummer and a wary dreamer… face the music and the absence of it. \n9PM: INTIMACY COORDINATION \nIf you want to round the bases\, you’ve got to step into the batter’s box and learn to swing… the right way. Here\, an American gigolo\, a speed-dater\, a co-worker\, the cuckold\, bros\, sistahs\, neighbors and the common housefly learn how to get their game on before they get their groove on. \nGeneral admission tickets ($10 per block or $15 for a day pass) are available online or by calling the box office at 509-529-6500. \nSeating for each screening is capped at 100 patrons\, as allowed under Washington’s Safe Start Plan. Additional precautions including required mask use and physical distancing between households will be observed. \nWant to receive early notice and access to ticket sales? Join the +Power Club (highest priority) or sign up for our e-mail list! \n\nSeason Sponsors: \n         \nKAPP-KVEW TV\, Pacific Power\, Northwest Public Broadcasting\, Hayden Homes \nAdditional support provided by:\nWalla Walla County\, Port of Walla Walla\, City of Walla Walla \nEach Coldwell Banker Office is Independently Owned and Operated
