Magnolia Creek is very excited to announce that, with the help of several sponsors and partners (see below), we will be bringing the acclaimed documentary, "America the Beautiful," to Birmingham and several other cities in the South!
"America the Beautiful" is a socially probing documentary that explores the question, "Does America have an unhealthy obsession with beauty?" Filmmaker Darryl Roberts spent two years to uncover the secrets, the deadly risks, and the strikingly harsh realities of our nation's quest for physical perfection.
This film has been playing to sold-out audiences across the country, and I was fortunate enough to catch it at an eating disorders conference earlier this year. It truly is a "must-see," so please mark your calendars, and come back to our website soon as we will be making tickets available online very soon purchase an advance ticket on our website.
