HALF MOON BAY, CA The Fourth Annual Beach Break Film Festival (BBFF).The 2025 <a href="https://beachbreakfilmfestival2025.eventive.org/films" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Beach Break Entertainment Film Festival program</a>, running December 28–30 in Half Moon Bay, California presents a highly-curated selection of cinema that addresses urgent social issues and celebrates artistic prestige, featuring films connected to the legendary Coppola cinematic family and an urgent slate of advocacy-focused documentaries.&nbsp; Buy your Christmas and Chanukkah gifts now and share a moment on the beautiful San Mateo Coast.&nbsp; &nbsp;<a href="https://www.beachbreakentertainment.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">beachbreakentertainment.com/</a> for tickets and more information. 
The three-day event, guided by the theme of human resilience, opens with the lovely film of kindness, <a href="https://beachbreakfilmfestival2025.eventive.org/schedule/691f65063b53e86bfbbe865a" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Power of Small</a>.<h3>In a world longing for compassion, imagine gathering a diverse group, endowing them with unexpected financial means, and setting them on a single mission: spread kindness. No rules, no supervision – just empathy as their guide.</h3>Don't miss this beautiful film featuring Atherton's <a href="https://thepowerofsmallmovie.com/about" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Terri D. Bullock</a>, as it&nbsp;chronicles the journeys of six individuals out of fifty, each gifted with resources to spread kindness and generosity. What unfolded defies expectations. Opening Night we share the critically acclaimed feature <a href="https://beachbreakfilmfestival2025.eventive.org/schedule/691f666284d5efed8e290ce2" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Fairyland</a>, an adaptation of Alysia Abbott’s memoir produced by Sofia Coppola and directed by Palo Alto's own Andrew Durham. This poignant story chronicles a unique father-daughter bond in bohemian San Francisco, later shadowed by the AIDS crisis. This is preceded by The Last Gift, a short film by Ryan Neisz, a three-time Emmy Award–winning producer, director, and editor known for his exceptional work in television development and storytelling.&nbsp; The Last Gift is a deeply human documentary that follows the journey of Jim, one of the first participants in the Last Gift rapid autopsy program at UC San Diego.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h3>Advocacy, Democracy, and the Fight for Freedom</h3>
The festival's lineup provides a platform for critical national dialogue. The centerpiece documentary, <a href="https://beachbreakfilmfestival2025.eventive.org/schedule/6921e4af35baf56195ab9224" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Librarians</a>, directed by award-winning social issue filmmaker Kim A. Snyder, tackles the "unprecedented wave of book banning" and censorship across the US. Snyder’s work arrives with immediate prestige, as her concurrent documentary, DEATH BY NUMBERS, was recently nominated for the Best Documentary Short Film at the 97th Academy Awards in January 2025.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The festival closes with <a href="https://beachbreakfilmfestival2025.eventive.org/films/6903011e37ccb91547c636d1" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Brother Verses Brother</a>, a radical cinematic experiment directed by Ari Gold and inspired by Francis Ford Coppola’s "Live Cinema" concept. The Tuesday program also features Magic Hour, a dramady acing the career of the new director, Jacqueline Christy and starring Miriam Shor (Younger).&nbsp;Many of the subjects and directors will be with us to share their stories and entertain us along the way.&nbsp; Live music between each of the films, and a catered Closing Night Reception for all, catered by Cameron's Pub and Inn Restaurant with live music and a DJ.&nbsp; Don't miss the fun.&nbsp; Buy your stocking stuffers now.&nbsp; Visit our website for more information.&nbsp;&nbsp;
