Driven by a commitment to revolutionary storytelling\, Ms. Maldoror studied filmmaking at the Moscow Film Academy\, where she trained alongside emerging African directors including Ousmane Sembène. \nUpon returning\, she worked as assistant director on THE BATTLE OF ALGIERS (1966) before launching her own directing career in Africa.

Shajane\, Maha\, Muzamil\, Khatab\, and the voice of poet Chaikhoon form a cinematic chorus—young\, politically defiant\, and artistically fearless. In their twenties\, they stand at the front lines of a revolution\, confronting a corrupted army and paramilitary militias responsible for brutal war crimes in Darfur\, Kordofan\, and Blue Nile. They could have lost hope before they even began. Instead\, through chants\, poems\, and dreams\, they built a movement that helped topple a regime. Blending intimate storytelling with sweeping political urgency\, SUDAN\, REMEMBER US captures the uneven struggle between the fire of militias and the unbreakable voices of the people. It’s a tribute to the power of words—and a reminder that freedom is a fight born first in the imagination. \nMPA Rating:\nNOT-RATED | Sensitive Imagery \nABOUT THE FILMMAKER\nHind Meddeb is a French-Tunisian-Moroccan journalist and documentary film director\, she was born in Châtenay-Malabry\, Paris\, France.

It covers women’s role in Aztec society\, their participation in the 1810 struggle for Mexican independence\, their involvement in U.S. labor strikes in 1872\, their contributions to the 1910 Mexican revolution and their leadership in contemporary civil rights causes. Using murals\, engravings and historical footage\, CHICANA shows how women\, despite their poverty\, have become an active and vocal part of the political and work life in both Mexico and the United States. \nA CRUSHING LOVE\, Sylvia Morales’ sequel to her groundbreaking history of Chicana women\, CHICANA (1979)\, honors the achievements of five activist Latinas—labor organizer and farm worker leader Dolores Huerta\, author and educator Elizabeth “Betita” Martinez\, writer/playwright/educator Cherrie Moraga\, civil rights advocate Alicia Escalante\, and historian/writer Martha Cotera—and considers how these single mothers managed to be parents and effect broad-based social change at the same time. \nPlease note: Other showtimes in the day’s program require a separate ticketed entry. Guests must RSVP and possess a ticket for each screening time to attend each of the screenings. \nABOUT THE FILMMAKER\nSylvia Morales has directed\, written\, produced and edited award-winning and nationally recognized film and video work for over 30 years.
