[Divided We Fall]

The next newsletter for Divided We Fall will make its way to you next week!  In the mean time, we would like to invite our friends in the Bay Area to an advanced screening of the film this weekend at Stanford University, where we present the director's cut  as part of the first Bay Area Spinning Wheel Film Festival.  Since the journey to make this movie began at Stanford, it is only fitting that this will be our last test screening before the our official US premiere this September... More news to come!

Writer/Producer Valarie Kaur and award-winning Director/Producer Sharat Raju will be present for a discussion after this special advanced screening of the film.  The film will make its official US premiere this fall.

 

About the film: "Who counts as American?  When a turbaned Sikh man is brutally murdered in the aftermath of Sept. 11, a college student journeys across the country to find out who counts as "one of us" in a world divided into "us and them."  Armed with only a camera, she captures hundreds of stories never before told – stories of fear and unspeakable loss, but also of resilience and hope – until she finally finds the heart of America, halfway around the world.  Over four years in the making, Divided We Fall weaves expert analysis into a cross-country road trip that confronts the forces dividing Americans in times of crisis."
