Award Winning Documentary Film “Invisible Imprints” and conversation

Presented by WBUR Cityspace at WBUR CitySpace

This award-winning feature length documentary follows twelve Boston-based poets and dancers as they travel from Jackson, MS up the Great Migration Trail to Chicago, performing an original piece called Invisible: Imprints of Racism. At each showing they facilitate talkbacks with audiences, meet with Civil Rights veterans and discover new perspectives on American history that was never taught in school. As these dramatic experiences unfold on the tour, the film captures the performers’ own struggles with identity and race, shedding light on the deeper truths of America's racial history from diverse perspectives. The hour-long film won Best Documentary Film at the LA Sun Film Festival and other juried awards.
A Q&A with choreographer Anna Myer, filmmaker Jay Paris and performers from the film will follow the screening.
