COLD SHOWER |
In honor of SEE Fest's
2012 showing of Orsi Nagypal’s short film, COLD SHOWER, and Mona Nicoara's OUR
SCHOOL (event info below) we ask that you help observe Sunday April 8, 2012 as International
Roma Day. In an eye opening article, Amnesty International has delivered an
insight into the relentless persecution and prejudices against the European
Roma – a group primarily living in Central and Eastern Europe (including the
SEE countries of Bulgaria, Greece, Hungary, Macedonia, Romania, Serbia).
International Roma Day aims to recognize this injustice against Romani
people and also to celebrate their history and culture which has contributed so
much to the rich cultural heritage of South East Europe and the world.
For more on the plight of the Roma people in Romania, join SEE Fest on April 25th for the screening of OUR SCHOOL, winner of Best U.S. Documentary 2011 at Silverdocs.
