Social Justice Film Night presents:
"MANDELA AND FIDEL"
By Estella BravoMandela visited Cuba in 1991, a year after being released from prison, and met Fidel Castro then. That was the beginning of a close friendship between two exceptional men of our era, a friendship which was renewed in each of their many meetings and wound up with an embrace and the exclamation “My brother!”. "REVOLUTIONARY MEDICINE" By Beth Geglia and Jesse Freeston
An inspiring film about a... community that got fed up and just built their own hospital.
Could a remote hospital that runs on solar panels, in a community without paved roads or electricity, provide a global model for health care? Since arriving in Honduras in 1797, the Garifuna people have struggled against exclusion, discrimination and dispossession of their land. Today, their first hospital provides holistic care, for free, without receiving a cent from the government. This is a story of how and why they do it.
After the film showing we will connect with the directors of this film trough skype so they can give some background of the film and to answer any questions the audience may have of the showing.7pm Thursday, June 26 at 2994 Douglas (BCGEU Hall)
