SUMMARY:IN SEARCH OF BENGALI HARLEM
DESCRIPTION:See only at the Roxie Theater\, not available online.\nFilmmakers Vivek Bald and Alaudin Ullah in person for Q&A!\nIn Search of Bengali Harlem is a transformative journey for Alaudin Ullah\, and for our understanding of the complex histories of South Asian Americans. \nAs a teenager in 1980s Harlem\, Alaudin Ullah was swept up in the revolutionary energy of early hip-hop. He rejected his working-class Bangladeshi parents and turned his back on everything South Asian and Muslim until he became an adult.  In Search of Bengali Harlem follows Ullah\, from the streets of New York City to the villages of Bangladesh to uncover the pasts of his father\, Habib\, and mother\, Mohima. He discovers that Habib was part of an extraordinary history of mid-20th century Harlem\, in which Bengali men\, dodging racist Asian Exclusion laws\, married into New York’s African American and Puerto Rican communities – and in which the likes of Malcolm X and Miles Davis shared space and broke bread with immigrants from the subcontinent.

SUMMARY:ANIMAL
DESCRIPTION:See only at the Roxie Theater; not available online.\nCyril Dion’s insightful and transformative documentary takes a fresh look at the world’s ecological crises of climate change and the sixth mass extinction of wildlife\, through the eyes of two 16-year-old environmental activists\, Vipulan Puvaneswaran and Bella Lack. \nThrough the extraordinary investigative journey of teenagers Vipulan\, of Sri Lankan descent from France\, and of Bella\, from England\, we learn from scientists and activists what is being done around the world to attempt to reverse mass extinction\, revealing a quest for another way of living alongside other species\, as co-habitants rather than predators. \nThe young activists take us to the source of the problem\, which is hopefully the solution\, too: our relationship to the living world. Through their confrontation of this reality\, we become more deeply aware of how we are linked to all other species\, and that by saving them\, we also save ourselves\, providing the possibility of a brighter future. As Dion explains\, “The human being believed that he could separate himself from nature\, but he is nature. He too is an Animal.” \nGolden Eye nominee\, Cannes Film Festival 2021\nYouth Jury Prize winner\, International French Film Festival of Namur 2021
