The Museum of Ventura County is honored to host a screening of “From the Ashes Up”, a documentary on the Thomas Fire created by two local teens.
The screening will be on Sunday, February 24, 2019 at 3 p.m., and will be followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers. The screening is free to attend.
Note from the Filmmakers:
Sierra, 17, and Canyon, 13, are ready to INSPIRE and MOTIVATE the world! They are a brother and sister duo team, directing, writing and producing an uplifting documentary for you.
On December 4th, 2017, with 15 minutes to evacuate, we lost our home and everything in it, to one of Southern California’s largest wildfires in history — the Thomas Fire, which consumed over 1,000 homes and structures in just a few days. This tragic event has inspired us to make a motivational documentary about those deeply affected by the fire and how they transitioned from fire victim to VICTORY, in a short amount of time.
