"Once Upon a Mountain," a Eugene International Film Festival Special Presentation
April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month. The Eugene International Film Festival presents an exclusive pre-release screening of "Once Upon a Mountain," as a fundraiser for Jasper Mountain, a treatment center for abused children. There will be a Q & A session following the screening.
The Jasper Mountain Center is located in an idyllic forested setting east of Eugene, Oregon, near the community of Jasper. Children and families facing the most difficult of child abuse circumstances from across America, including foreign adoptions and crisis response services, receive outstanding long-term care from the skilled and respected staff at Jasper Mountain. Jasper Mountain will open a new school building at the SAFE Center, this summer, 2014.
Abused children, blurred on camera for privacy, are remarkable for the spectrum of life experiences they have suffered and their candor in the telling of their stories. There is no violence depicted in "Once Upon a Mountain," although there is some content not recommended for children. This is a documentary that captures the heartfelt successes of Jasper Mountain.
