Human Rights Film Festival @ UCSD (Monday May 7th)
A free film showing is occurring at UCSD's Price Center Theater on Monday, May 7th at 5-9pm by the San Diego chapter of the UN.
5:00pm "The Shape of Water"
Through intimate encounters with five very different women in Brazil, India, Jerusalem and Senegal, this
film, narrated by Susan Sarandon offers a close look at the far-reaching and vibrant alternatives crafted by
women in response to environmental degradation, archaic traditions, lack of economic independence and
war.
6:20pm "Independent Intervention"
An award-winning documentary about the U.S. media coverage of the war in Iraq. By focusing on the
human costs of war and contrasting the mass medias coverage of the invasion of Iraq with independent
reports of the brutal realities on the ground, the film aims to bring awareness to the disparity between the
war the American people see through the corporate controlled media and the realities on the ground in Iraq.
7:45pm "The Peacekeepers"
With unprecedented access to the UN Department of Peacekeeping, the film provides an intimate and
dramatic portrait of the struggle to save "a failed state." Focusing on the UN mission in the Democratic
Republic of Congo (DRC), the film cuts back and forth between the UN headquarters in New York and
events on the ground in the DRC. In the background, often impinging on peacekeeping decisions, lies the
painful memory of Rwanda, the worsening crisis in Iraq, global terrorism, and American hegemony in
world affairs.
