A presentation of the Nou Akoma Nou Sineji Haitian Dominican Transnational Film Festival

Two Films:

Toda la Verdad: When a young Dominican-American woman uncovers African ancestry through a DNA test, her search for answers about a relative's hidden past forces a reckoning with long-held family beliefs about race, class, and identity.

Diaspora Power:Montreal-based documentary filmmaker Joseph Hillel's film examines the wave of Haitian immigration to Quebec in the 1960s and 1970s, drawing on stories from Hillel’s own family, including his father, a psychiatrist, and his uncle, Montreal’s first Black police officer. 

Join us for the film and panel talk moderated by Marlin Hernandez.

When: Friday October 9th at 6:30 PM
Where: Shepard Hall, City College, 259 Convent Ave at 140th Street Room 290/291
