Featuring Documentary Film: “Kaziah  The Goat Woman”(25m) – Embroiled in a war where the US government has forbid us to view our fallen soldiers, one woman, armed with a paintbrush and a herd of pregnant goats, has found a way to make sure these faces are seen and never forgotten. Painting over 900 portraits as gifts for the families, a quirky Kaziah faces death on a daily basis.

Local Western New York & Ontario, Canada families will be honored with Kaziah’s paintings of those fallen soldiers, including the family of Marc Diab below from Ontario. 

-       Featuring Documentary Film: “If I Should Fall” (87m) – A film that defines the tragedy of war through a families loss of an only son. Driven by premonition of death before deployment to Afghanistan. In case he should fall Trooper Marc Diab made a video for his funeral to deliver a message of comfort from beyond the grave. Prophetically Diab died March 8th, 2009 by IED. His video played at his funeral to a sea of tears. This is the story of journey through grief and what it means to lose a son to war. Through telling the story of the loss of one family, ‘If I Should Fall’ tells the story of all families whom have lost a loved one to war.

9pm

-       Continue with special Armed Forces Honorees, dedication of Kaziah’s portraits to the families of several Ontario and Western New York fallen soldiers & Awards Presentation and after party at The Rapids Theatre.
