Date: Friday September 21st
Time: 7pm-9pm
Location: Media Education Foundation, Frances Crowe Screening Room, 60 Masonic Street, Northampton MA
Description of the event: Screening of The Fruit of Our Labor, a collection of documentary shorts made by Afghan filmmakers. The films bring to life Afghans’ daily efforts to address their challenging social and economic conditions, offering a personal and first-hand Afghan point of view rarely seen or heard in the US – even after 10 years of intense media coverage.
The screening will be accompanied by a presentation by Community Supported Film, an organization that builds documentary storytelling capacity in countries in crisis with a focus on social and economic development issues. CSFilm seeks to raise the concerns of Afghans as we deliberate our immediate and long-term role in Afghanistan.
