Only in LA would a neighborhood equal-opportunity center be for aspiring producers and directors.

This small, grassroots community organization provides affordable access to film and video education and equipment, emphasizing films with social-justice themes. The center's threefold mission is to provide a microcinema, a free school for area youth, and a store for sales and repair of film equipment.
