Frank is a retired Lt. Col. in the US army. He's blind and impossible to get along with. Charlie is at school and is looking forward to going to college. To help pay for a trip home for Christmas, he agrees to look after Frank over Thanksgiving. It turns out to be a heart-wrenching and heartwarming tale of opposites attracting when they embark on a wild weekend trip that will change the lives of both men forever.

Recommendation
"Seeing love even in the darkness."
We chose to screen Scent of a Woman because this classic inspired the musician Khalil Fong to write his song "TANGO." Khalil has a gift for finding inspiration in everyday life, turning delicate emotions into moving melodies. To me, he is more than a musician; he is an artist who leads with sincerity and kindness—a lifelong role model. The integrity and warmth of this film resonate deeply with the world he believes in. May this screening bring you a sense of gentle, calm, and unwavering strength.
