MSU Film Collective: Yawar Mallku/Blood of the Condor (Jorge Sanjinés, Bolivia, 1969, 70′) Ghal’e (Women’s Quarter) (Kamran Shirdel, Iran, 1966, 18′)

Presented by Farzaneh Ebrahimzadeh Holasu

In Blood of the Condor, a community reacts against a group of foreigners who under the guise of development assistance are forcibly sterilizing the peasant women.

Ghal’e shows the life of prostitutes in Tehran’s city brothels, an area known as Shahre Now. The film closely follows a number of women and communicates how the burden of social constraints led them to surrender in the face of their common fate.

All screenings will take place in B122 Wells Hall at 7pm. The series is free and open to all. West doors to Wells Hall, nearest Spartan Stadium, stay open until 7pm.
