DESCRIPTION:THE IGUAZU EFFECT  In 2001, Telefonica, the national telephone company of 
 Spain, sold its major subsidiary named Sintel as a part of the 
 globalization process of the country: about 1800 workers were laid off. The 
 people driven out from the most stable jobs to the streets built a "Camp of 
 Hope" in the middle of flourishing downtown of Madrid and started the 
 struggle which went on for 187 days. Workers from all over the country felt 
 a little strange about the situation, but as they ate and slept together, 
 they formed a solidarity community. The title "Iguazu Effect" means that a 
 fisher man doesn't realize the danger or is fooled by the calmness of a 
 river, until he gets to the verge of a waterfall. This is a metaphor of 
 workers' situation in the wild globalization age. The Director is Pere Joan 
 Ventura.   BLOODLETTING: LIFE DEATH HEALTHCARE  What happens when a 
 filmmaker borrows a camera to explore healthcare? It becomes personal. 
 BLOODLETTING is about a filmmaker, Lorna Green, who travels to Cuba to 
 investigate its healthcare system, only to return home where two family 
 members, uninsured by their employers, develop illnesses. The film reveals 
 the cruel underbelly of America's healthcare system. 
 http://www.lornagreen.org  The Films are FREE but $5 donations are 
 accepted.  Before and after the film, everyone's invited to indulge in our 
 Humanist Coffee House  \n
