About this Event

Join us for an afternoon full of great films, good discussion and stories that demand to be heard!

Film has power to generate a tangible impact not only in its viewers, but also in broader society. With that idea in mind, the Pozen & Fire Escape Documentary Short Films were created, hoping to enrich our perspectives and our communities. Join us at the Logan Media Center Screening Room (201) on Sunday, May 17th at 5 pm to watch two excellent films that were created as a product of this grant.

We will be screening Redefiniendo el Norte ("Redefining North"), and Memories of American Gynecology, both of which can be found down below.
