SUMMARY:INDOCUMENTALES - THE UNAFRAIDSector to Secure Support
DESCRIPTION:Description\n\n\n\nThe Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies at New York University (CLACS)\, Cinema Tropical\, and the World Council of Peoples for the United Nations / What Moves You?\, present the Spring edition of INDOCUMENTALES – a film and conversation series committed to exploring the multiplicity of Latin American migrant experiences in our country through compassionate representation and critical dialogue. \nINDOCUMENTALES began in May of 2010 as Indocumentales: the US/Mexico Interdependent Film Series with screenings and panel discussions at New York University’s King Juan Carlos I of Spain Center and other venues throughout the five boroughs including the Americas Society and Cervantes Institute in Midtown Manhattan\, the Dwyer Cultural Center in Harlem\, the Casita Maria Center for the Arts in the Bronx\, the Beacon Center for the Arts in Bushwick\, Brooklyn\, and the Queens Museum in Corona\, New York. It since traveled across the U.S.\, as well as to Mexico and Canada\, engaging diverse communities in reflecting on their relationship to the questions posed in the films. \nThe series is free and open to the public. All screenings are followed by panel discussions meant to bring together filmmakers\, scholars\, activists\, policy makers\, and community representatives concerned with the fortification of immigrant rights. \n____________________________________________________________________________ \nTHE UNAFRAID (Anayansi Prado and Heather Courtney\, USA\, 2018\, 87 mins. In English and Spanish with English and Spanish subtitles) \nThe Unafraid is a feature length documentary that follows the personal lives of three DACA students in Georgia\, a state that has banned them from attending their top state universities and disqualifies them from receiving in-state tuition at any other public college. Shot in an observational style over a period of four years\, this film takes an intimate look at the lives of Alejandro\, Silvia and Aldo as they navigate activism\, pursuing their right to education\, and fighting for the rights of their families and communities.​ The Unafraid shows us what it means to grow up both American and undocumented in the United States. \nTrailer: https://vimeo.com/263308493 \nAbout the Directors: \nAnayansi Prado An award-winning documentary filmmaker and instructor\, Anayansi Prado was born in Panama and moved to the United States as a teenager.
