IU Cinema: “1912, Breaking the Silence” film

07:00 pm to 09:45 pm
IU Cinema, 1213 E. 7th St.

Over 10 years in the making, 1912, Breaking the Silence unearths the history of Cuba’s Partido Independiente de Color (PIC). Founded in 1908 by Afro-Cuban veterans of Cuba’s war for independence, the PIC was the second black-led party in the Americas. They struggled for racial, political, and economic equality in the early years of the republic. Using a creative mix of interviews and archival documents, Rolando pieces together the historical antecedents that led to the shocking 1912 massacre of thousands of Afro-Cubans affiliated with the PIC. Originally conceived as a three-part series, this recently completed version includes the third and final episode. In Spanish language with English subtitles. (HD Cam presentation)
Director Gloria Rolando is scheduled to be present.

Cost: Free, but ticketed
