The event will bring together teachers, educators, administrators, and teaching artists for a screening of Souleymane’s Story by Boris Lokjine. The film was a standout in last year’s student screenings and received enthusiastic feedback from both teachers and students. It follows a Guinean asylum seeker working as a food delivery cyclist in Paris as he races to prepare for a crucial immigration interview. It's a very timely film that offers a powerful portrait of the realities of migrant life and the impact of the “uberization” of modern society.
The screening will be followed by a collaborative workshop exploring how that film can be used across disciplines and for a range of educational goals. Light snacks and refreshments are included. Schedule enclosed.
