OTHER CINEMA: "pray the devil back to hell" + david martinez +

David Martinez returns from the Sahara to share the images and sounds that he collected traveling through the Darfuri villages and battlegrounds. Not only do we witness the rebels’ history and motivations, but we also enjoy the benefits of Martinez’ broader regional, continental, and global analysis, brought to bear on this contemporary catastrophe. Co-billed is Gini Reticker’s Pray the Devil Back to Hell, chronicling the remarkable story of the courageous Liberian women who came together to end a bloody civil war and bring peace to their shattered country. PLUS the premiere of Sahar Al-Sawaf’s Um Abdullah, an artful animated piece about her Iraqi refugee family.
