Join us for a special screening of Deaf Santa Claus, a new feature documentary that has been captivating audiences nationwide.
With an uncanny resemblance to the icon himself, Charles Graves chases his dream of becoming a professional Deaf Santa Claus. Filmmakers chronicle Charles and his family as he attends Santa school and enlists the support of others in an attempt to better provide for his loved ones.
Directed by Ben Shelton and Anthony Mowl, the film offers unique perspectives on navigating Deaf and hearing worlds in a story about family, fatherhood, and creating new traditions.
Presented by Glow Fest, this screening at The REC in Fort Jones, CA is more than just a film showing—it’s an opportunity to experience an inspiring story that celebrates representation, family, and the power of community.
