Join Undocumented Women’s Fund and Roxa Luxemburg Stiftung on Saturday, August 22nd for the last installment of our Summer! ☀️🎬

We are ending on a high note with Stateless, a power documentary by Michele Stephenson, that follows families of those affected by the 2013 legislation stripping citizenship from Dominicans of Haitian descent, uncovering the complex history and present-day politics of Haiti and the Dominican Republic through the grassroots electoral campaign of a young attorney named Rosa Iris.

📍 Haven Plaza (711 W 168th St, New York, NY 10032)

🚪 Doors open: 7:30 PM

🎥 Screening: 8:30 PM

After the screening, stay for a discussion on how the film sheds light on what is at stake in the fight over birthright citizenship, statelessness as an immigration regime, and translocal politics. We will have a surprise guest join us for the discussion.

¡Te invitamos al cine! Únete al Fondo de Mujeres Indocumentadas y a la Fundación Rosa Luxemburgo este sábado 22 de agosto para presenciar la última entrega de nuestro Ciclo de Cine Feminista de Verano. ☀️🎬

El grán final de la serie será Stateless, un documental de Michele Stephenson que retrata la vida de las familias afectadas por la ley del 2013, con la que la Suprema Corte Dominicana quitó la nacionalidad a sus ciudadanos de ascendencia haitiana. Narrada a través de la campaña electoral en territorio de la joven abogada Rosa Iris, ofrece una ventana a la complejidad histórica de la política de ambos países.

🚪 Apertura de puertas: 7:30 PM

🎥 Proyección: 8:30 PM

¡Al finalizar la proyección, quédate para participar en la discusión! Hablaremos de cómo la película nos muestra lo que hay en juego en la batalla por la ciudadanía; cómo volver a la gente “apátrida” funciona como un herramienta de gobierno migratorio; y de qué modo la vida de quien migra es siempre “translocal”. ¡Tendremos una invitada sorpresa!

¡Nos vemos pronto!
