An Oct. 21 public screening of "Entre Nos" an award-winning movie about an abandoned Columbian woman fending for herself and her children in New York, will be followed by a question and answer session with the film's director, Gloria Le Morte.
"It's bracing to find a narrative in which a heroine rights her own situation without a Hollywood knight galloping to her rescue," wrote Andy Webster in the May 14, 2010 New York Times review. "For all its soot and concrete, ‘Entre Nos’ only suggests the brutal rigors of the immigrant experience. But it’s nice to be reminded that striving newcomers have long strengthened this country."
The screening, supported by the College of Architecture and the College of Liberal Arts, is scheduled at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 21 in Langford C105.
The film has won awards at numerous film festivals, including Tribeca, Newport, Warsaw, Ft. Lauderdale and Woodstock.
