The documentary will be screened at the City Library, 210 East 400 South, in Salt Lake City on May 20 at 7:00 pm.  Admission is free and the film is open to the public.  No registration is required.  If you have an interest in technology and teaching, please let us know at the film as we are also recruiting volunteers to help teach classes to seniors about how to use Facebook, Twitter, and other electronic means of communication.
