Special Benefit Film Screening for Haiti Relief Efforts
Screenings at both 7 & 9 p.m.
"Poto Mitan: Haitian Women, Pillars of the Global Economy" Renée Bergan, co-director of the film, will introduce the film and take questions in a discussion facilitated by Carolyn Shread, Mount Holyoke College, after the screening This new documentary (50 mins, NR), directed by Renée Bergan and Mark Schuller, gives a platform to five poor Haitian women whose voices would otherwise not be heard. Speaking from their own experience working in factories in Haiti and organizing grassroots campaigns, the women critique globalization and neo-liberal economic policies from the perspective of those it affects most immediately. The film shows how Haitian women are not only the poto mitan or center post of their families and communities, but also how they bear the weight of the global economy. Special Admission: $10 per ticket - All proceeds will go to support critical medical needs and micro-financing of women in Haiti.
