NURSE UNSEEN Film Screening w/ Director Michele Josue

Documentary feature NURSE UNSEEN from Emmy Award-winner Michele Josue will make its Chicago premiere on Tuesday, October 8 at 7:00 PM at AMC Oakbrook Center 12 (600 Oakbrook Center). Director Josue will be in attendance with producer Carlo Velayo for the red carpet (6:30 PM), the film’s introduction and a post-screening Q&A. Presented by Asian Pop-Up Cinema, the event will be held in celebration of Filipino American History Month.

Nurse Unseen follows the unsung Filipino nurses who risked their lives on the frontlines of the Covid-19 pandemic. Featuring personal narratives from medical workers, grieving families, journalists and more, the feature-length documentary examines resilience, dedication and sacrifice during an unprecedented time of crisis. The film unearths the colonial ties between the Philippines and the United States that have led to Filipino-American nurses becoming the unknown backbone of the American health industry.

Come out and celebrate Filipino American History Month with NURSE UNSEEN!
