Global Film Series: Brief Tender Light

In celebration of International Education Week, join us for this thought-provoking and uplifting documentary. At America’s elite MIT, a Ghanaian alum follows four African students as they strive to become agents of change for their home countries Nigeria, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Zimbabwe. Over an intimate, nearly decade-long journey spanning two continents, all must decide how much of America to absorb, how much of Africa to hold on to, and how to reconcile teenage ideals with the truths they discover about the world and themselves. Directed by Arthur Musah. Language, English; runtime 1 hour, 33 minutes.

The Global Film Series is a collaboration between the NC State University Libraries and NC State Global.
