SUMMARY:"My Country\, My Country" with Filmmaker Laura Poitras
DESCRIPTION:Working Alone in Iraq over eighteen months\, My Country\, My Country (2006) Peabody Award-winning filmmaker Laura Poitras creates an extraordinarily intimate portrait of Iraqis living under US occupation. Her principal focus is Dr. Riyadh\, an Iraqi medical doctor\, father of six and Sunni Political candidate. An outspoken critic of the occupation\, he is equally passionate about the need to establish democracy in Iraq\, arguing that Sunni participation in the January 2005 elections is essential. Yet all around him\, Dr. Riyadh sees only chaos\, as his waiting room fills each day with patients suffering the physical and mental effects of ever-increasing violence.  My Country\, My Country is a powerful mosaic of daily life in Iraq\, and according to the Village Voice it is “the most valuable piece of film to emerge about the war in all of its three years.” \n\n\n\nThis event is a collaboration with P.O.V. (the acclaimed independent non-fiction film series on PBS)\, and is presented with Bethlehem Neighbors for Peace and Women Against War.

SUMMARY:"Witches in Exile" with Filmmaker Allison Berg
DESCRIPTION:Africa deals with its internal pressure  in specifically African ways\, as revealed in Allison Berg’s lucid\, fascinating and wide-ranging study of how witch hunts break out at times of social and economic stress and about the camps in Ghana that provide a haven for accused women. \n\n\n\nIn Ghana\, women accused of witchcraft are torn from their families and banished to isolated “witch villages.” Witches in Exile (2004) filmmaker Allison Berg follows accused witches through their daily struggle to survive in the Kukuo Witches Camp in Northern Ghana. As government agencies attempt to abolish this age-old tradition\, these women find themselves caught between their society’s deeply rooted beliefs and its drive toward modernization. Witches in Exile captures a country at a dramatic and emotional crossroads. Potluck with the filmmaker precedes the screening.  \n\n\n\nCo-sponsored with the Experimental Television Center Presentation Funds program\, which is supported by the New York State Council on the Arts.
