    Legendary actress and humanitarian Audrey Hepburn featured at Fisher Theatre

    Sedona Internatonal Film FestivalSedona AZ (February 3, 2021) – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of the award-winning new documentary “Audrey: More Than An Icon” showing Feb. 12-18 at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre.

    Filmmaker Helena Coan examines the remarkable life and career of actress, fashion icon and humanitarian Audrey Hepburn in “Audrey: More Than An Icon”.

    Audrey Hepburn won her first Academy Award at the age of 24 and went on to become one of the world's greatest cultural icons: a once-in-a-generation beauty, and legendary star of Hollywood's Golden Age, whose style and pioneering collaboration with Hubert de Givenchy continues to inspire.

But who was the real Audrey Hepburn?

    Audrey Hepburn is unforgettable, and yet she kept her off-camera life incredibly private. Hers was a life of many heartbreaks, glossed over by her image as a joyful, pixie-like figure still reproduced on memorabilia all over the world.

    Malnourished as a child, abandoned by her father and growing up under Nazi occupation in Holland, Hepburn faced a life-long battle with the traumas of her past, which thwarted her dreams of becoming a ballet dancer, and cast a shadow over her personal life.

    Beneath Audrey’s grace and elegance lay a will of steel which helped her survive WWII, the loss of her father, her failed marriages, and finally gave her the courage to leave Hollywood and focus on her love of children and humanitarian work.

    She found inner peace using her superstardom for good as a global ambassador for UNICEF and bringing her life full circle; first a victim of war, then a source of relief to millions.

    “Audrey” is the definitive portrait of a true cinematic legend and humanitarian icon.

    “Audrey: More Than An Icon” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre Feb. 12-18. Showtimes will be 7 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 12, 13 and 14; and 4 p.m. on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, Feb. 15, 17 and 18.

    Tickets are $12, or $9 for Film Festival members. For tickets and more information, please call 928-282-1177. Both the theatre and film festival office are located at 2030 W. Hwy. 89A, in West Sedona. For more information, visit: www.SedonaFilmFestival.org.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
