ABOUT THE MOVIE
This is an advanced screening of the new documentary SOBER, which follows a group of people who have risen from the ashes of addiction in Los Angeles, proving that recovery isn’t just about getting sober but also about reclaiming joy, strength, and community.
The film explores the rise of The Phoenix, a nonprofit founded by Scott Strode, as it evolves from a single man's journey to sobriety through fitness and connection into a nationwide movement of over one million people united by the power of community in recovery.

ABOUT HEAD OUT
Head Out is a public education initiative built on a simple but research-supported premise. One of the most powerful but overlooked paths to better mental health runs outward, not inward. Rather than encouraging more self-focus, Head Out makes the case for more outward-directed, meaningful engagement with the world.
