The film we've all been waiting to see, Destin Daniel Cretton's I Am Not A Hipster, will make its San Diego premiere at the Museum of Photographic Arts on Friday, May 11th. After debuting at Sundance, and getting rave reviews from the likes of Rolling Stone, I Am Not A Hipster will return to its home turf. The feature length film is set in San Diego's art and music scene, highlighting quite a few local bands and musicians throughout the film and soundtrack. Destin also enlisted Joel P West to compose the film's original score and write an album's worth of songs for the film's main character. That side project has been dubbed CANINES, and you catch a rare live performance from them at the San Diego premiere.
On Friday, May 11th MOPA, San Diego Film Festival, and Sezio will host a double screening of I Am Not A Hipster, at 6pm and 9pm. In between screenings there will be a cocktail reception and a live performance from CANINES. Grab your tickets here, and don't wait, we are expecting the evening to sell out. If you haven't seen the trailer, you can view that below.

Habitat House is returning from winter hibernation this Monday to open their first art exhibit of the year. Birthday Show features two bay area artists, Andrew Heine (left) and Eric Taggart (right), on their actual birthday, April 30th. These two former San Diego residents are near and dear to our hearts, as they were both influencial players in Sezio's formation in the early 2000's. Their contrasting styles will be on display from 6-10pm Monday evening at 1008 21st Street. Cruise out to see their new work and partake in the evening's dialogue.
