Sacramento painter, David Garibaldi is premiering his documentary “Walking Dreams” and performing live at the Sacramento Film and Music Festival on July 29th at 7:30pm at the Crest Theater.

A week after the iPhone4 was released, a USC cinema graduate student from Sacramento is making news online and with Mac World movers and shakers.
