DESCRIPTION:A sequel to the award-winning documentary The World is Watching (1987), 
 which examined foreign news coverage of a climactic moment in the 
 U.S.-financed Contra war against Nicaragua’s revolutionary government.  
 Fifteen years later, filmmakers Peter Raymont and Harold Crooks return to 
 Nicaragua to discover what became of the first revolution to be conducted 
 in the glare of the world media. They question the role and responsibility 
 of journalists who first put Nicaraguans under the microscope, and then 
 rushed off to the next hot spot.  More importantly, however, for the 
 filmmakers, is the other half of the story – what of the Nicaraguans left 
 behind?  What of the democracy they now live in?  What of representation?  
 Of freedom?  Of poverty?  57 minutes, 2003.  Paul George, former West Coast 
 Coordinator of Quest for Peace, will speak and lead an open discussion 
 after the film.  Suggested donation $5 - $10.   Sponsored by:   World
