People’s Media Fund presents Con Fuerza, from the Diaspora: Rituals and Reclaiming Our Stories
How can rituals ground us in reclaiming our stories when we're far from our roots? Many of us have been displaced from our home countries because of political and/or climate instability, queerness, gentrification, and corporate greed. Yet, con fuerza (with strength), we find a way to rebuild new homes and carve new pathways in foreign lands.
Join us for a special community screening featuring films by nine Greater Philadelphia filmmakers. Together, their works explore the rituals, traditions, relationships, and shared experiences that help shape identity, belonging, and community from both diasporic and Philadelphia-rooted perspectives.
