Movie: Narratives of Modern Genocide

5:00 PM – 6:30 PM
Moore Branch

Description

After the holocaust the world said, "never again," yet genocide is happening in the world right now. The stories we forget to tell, of the survivors we never knew, will haunt us until we listen and act.

Narratives of Modern Genocide challenges the audience to experience first-person accounts of survivors of genocide. Sichan Siv and Gilbert Tuhabonye share how they escaped the killing fields of Cambodia, and the massacre of school children in Burundi. Mixing haunting animation, and expert context the film confronts our notion that the holocaust was the last genocide.

If you would like to share your thoughts on the film, please stay for an informal discussion at the conclusion of the documentary.

Movie theater popcorn will be provided.
