Feminist Film Series: The Dispute Over Latin America – Se Fue a Volver (Mexico 2023)

Join us for the second screening of our 2024 Feminist Film Series: The Dispute for Latin America, which focus on the judicial war in Ecuador.

We’ll be screening a teaser to Influjo Psíquico by @alecardona_films and the documentar Se Fue a Volver by @enriquezborges, two films which chronicle the political persecution against the leadership of the Citizen Revolution following the departure of the government of former Ecuadorian president, Rafael Correa.

In the last two decades and after the end of the so-called “pink tide”, Latin America has experienced a reactionary counter-offensive. In the fourth year of this film series, we seek to map this counter-offensive and the tactics it has used to orchestrate soft coups, persecute political opponents, and handcuff leftist governments.

⏱️ Doors open at 7:00 pm and the film will start at 8:00 pm sharp. Please stay with us after the screening for a group discussion of the films!

🥟 We will have empanadas, jamaica water and wine from local vendors. A discount is available if you bring your own reusable water bottle.

We request a suggested donation of $10 to help us maintain our feminist programming, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds.
