DESCRIPTION:FREE SCREENING! Wed, Aug 15, 7:00 pm\n\nROSITA \ndir. Barbara Attie, Janet 
 Goldwater, 2005, Nicaragua/USA, 55min \n\nCompleted in 2005, two years 
 after the rape and pregnancy of a nine year-old Nicaraguan girl in Costa 
 Rica, Rosita documents the political, social, and religious sentiment 
 surrounding Rosita’s situation and the issue of abortion in Costa Rica 
 and Nicaragua.  Maria and Francisco, Rosita’s parents, moved their small 
 family from Nicaragua to Costa Rica to find work and ended up facing a 
 battle in both countries in which abortion is illegal.  After the 
 family’s tireless struggle, doctors perform an abortion for Rosita 
 following the legal exception for abortion when the life of the mother is 
 in danger.  Many claimed that Rosita’s abortion should not have happened, 
 including the Nicaraguan Cardinal who excommunicated all those involved 
 with the abortion.  Rosita’s story reached people throughout Latin 
 America and Europe who came together in support of the young victim, 
 speaking against the authorities of the government and the Church.\n\n* 
 with English subtitles. \n\n\nSAVE THE DATES!\n11TH INTERNATIONAL LATINO
