A Special Screening of “May I Be Frank”
Frank Ferrante is 54 years old, obese, depressed and addicted. He stumbles into Café Gratitude, a local raw, organic and vegan restaurant in San Francisco, and inspires three young men to help him transform his life. For the next 42 days, Frank eats only raw food, practices gratitude, visits local holistic practitioners, and receives a weekly colonic. With the help of his three new friends and his own determination, Frank gets a new body, a clearer mind, and most importantly, a soaring spirit. May I Be Frank documents the essence of the human condition and what it truly means to fall in love again.
Join Mindful Metropolis for an evening of conversation and transformatione. As we move into the new year, it’s the perfect movie to inspire your own personal change.
