"After I Pick the Fruit: The Lives of Migrant Women"
Wednesday, Feb. 20th
- 7:00 PM to 9:30PM in the Loew
Theater, The Black Family Visual Arts Center
Join us in viewing this timely and important film that humanizes the national debate on immigration through the vital
perspective of women migrant laborers.
Director, Nancy Ghertner, will introduce the film and be available for Q&A following the screening.
“After
I Pick the Fruit follows the lives of five immigrant farmworker women over a ten-year period as they labor in the apple orchards and fields of rural western New York,
migrate seasonally to Florida, raise their families, and try to hide from the Bush-era immigration raids that were conducted in response to 9/11. Filmed in New York, Florida, and Mexico, this intimate, bittersweet, feature-length film illuminates a community
that is nearly invisible to most Americans, and will change the way you look at our national ‘immigration problem.”
