The Multicultural Community Center at UC Berkeley will be hosting the premier screening of 7 short films created by the participants of the Home/Land(s) Project on Tuesday, April 30, 2013. The screening will be followed by a series of discussions regarding the filmmaking process and next steps. Home/Land(s) itself is a short film project that explores and presents concepts, lived realities and the multiplicity of experiences of students at Cal in connection with physical and/or metaphysical home(s), land(s), and homeland(s). These are not limited to projects on physical, spatial or specific geographies, but also push beyond the definitions of locations. It incorporates such works on transnational movements, displacements, family, historically situated experiences, world-making and many other topics. We hope that you can join us in celebrating this semester long process and take the opportunity to engage with us so that we can continue to build and maintain a positive learning space. Dessert and refreshments will be provided!Filmmakers include: Paula KahnPreyanka Kataria GulatiTommy StatkiewiczPristine ShinAraceli ArguetaMars RosasJimmy ZhangADA/Wheelchair accessible (access.berkeley.edu) https://www.facebook.com/events/228424193965276/

La Fuerza Silenciosa or in English, The Silent Strength is a public art installation done in Honduras by Kat Burdine and Alicia Reyes McNamara as a part of the Inside Out Project.

“Between both Kat and I, we have lived and work in El Progreso, Honduras for six years and though we worked with various demographics, we were continuously struck by the silent strength of women in the community. We have photographed these women and have pasted their portraits up in the center of town as well as their neighborhoods to give homage to their strength and struggles.”
