#MFLA WEDNESDAY My Voice, Your Voice, Our Voice: Bilingual Open Mic 🗓Wed March 21 ⏰ 11a - 12p 📍Amphitheater South Campus Students will write and present poems about their sense of self. The first version would be in their original language, then translated into English. They would read both in that order. Film Screening: Fidelandia 🗓 Wed March 21 ⏰ 7p - 9:30p 📍Performing Cultural Arts Theatre (PCAT), South Campus Students will watch Fidelandia, a documentary film by director Isaias Castañeda. It follows his journey in Cuba, as he experiences the everyday life of locals inside the country. Description: There was a historical reason for the Cuban revolution. After all these years, there might be some who still think it a great thing, but it doesn't work for everyone. This film is the story of those people who it doesn't work for. The youth fights for an opportunity to experience "Western freedom", the elderly express their sadness, anger, frustrations, and hopes of a Cuba they fear will never come. A Q & A session with Director Castañeda will immediately follow the screening. #MFLA2018 Music🎶 Film🎬 Literature📚 Art🎨🎭Festival #BCSouth (at Broward College South Campus)
