The sixth and final film in this series, Guaraní (Argentina/Paraguay, 2015), follows fisherman Atilio as he travels with his granddaughter Iara to Buenos Aires. His great desire is to have a grandson to transmit the Guaraní culture. When he discovers that Iara’s mother, Helena, is pregnant, he decides to go on a long journey and cross borders, with the aim to convince Helena to give birth in the Guarani land.
Following the screening of the film, please join us for a discussion and Q&A about the movie with graduate student Brenda Rojas, from the College of Education and Human Ecology.
