BRUNSWICK — The award-winning documentary film “The Boy Who Flies” will be shown on two October dates followed by a demonstration and discussion by Canadian pilot and filmmaker Benjamin Jordan and co-star Godfrey Masauli, Malawi’s only paraglider pilot. Masauli will present his message of conquering fears and following dreams.

Free public showings will be held at 2 p.m. Friday, Oct. 4, at People Plus, 35 Union Street, and at 1:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 5, in the Hannaford Auditorium at Southern Maine Community College, 29 Sewall Street at Brunswick Landing, the former Naval Air Station.

At 10 a.m., Saturday, Oct. 5, a paraglider demonstration, community formation, flyover, and kite-making event will take place on the Southern Maine Community College campus.

Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend this family friendly event. A fundraising lunch at noon (tickets available in advance) will support “The School of Dreams,” Malawi’s only paragliding school and one of the first in the world that combines the fundamentals of personal development with the experience of free flight.
