Join us for a night of mythology and the hero’s journey as we screen an inspirational film about Joseph Campbell and the exploration of stories and how they teach us about the meaning of being human. This online / live event will also feature a Q&A session after the screening with filmmaker Patrick Takaya Solomon and Robert “Bob” Walter, President /Executive Director of the Joseph Campbell Foundation and featured expert in the film.
About the Film:
In the early 20th century, while studying world mythology, Joseph Campbell discovered a pattern hidden in every story ever told and he called it “the heroes journey”. A truly inspirational film, FINDING JOE takes us on the ultimate heroes journey: the journey of self-discovery. As you slay dragons and uncover treasures, you just may find that the holy grail you seek is closer than you think.

Film Maker: Patrick Takaya Solomon
Patrick Solomon is an award-winning director and producer with more than 20 years behind the camera. He started his career in the early 90’s by shooting his favorite activity—extreme sports. His first venture into feature-length films produced the award-winning, Finding Joe, an inspiring exploration of famed mythologist Joseph Campbell, currently in DVD release. The film explores the concept of the hero’s journey, a pattern that is found in every story from every culture. It explains that all humans are actually taking the same journey and once that’s understood, we become the heroes and heroines of our own life’s story.
