MAY SUMAK: Quichwa Film Showcase in NYC

May Sumak / Quichwa Film Showcase: Indigenous Media from the Andes and Beyond is coming to New York City this week (March 26-28, 2015). It’s really great to see that the screenings and discussions will be hosted not only in three boroughs (Manhattan, the Bronx, and Queens), but also by several institutions: the National Museum of the American Indian, New York University, Lehman College of CUNY, and the Queens Museum. Please note that many of the films will be in Kichwa, the Ecuadorean dialect of Quechua, with English subtitles.

Winter in the Blood Coming to NYC June 5

At long last, Winter in the Blood will premiere in New York City on the closing night of the inaugural The Americas Film Festival of New York! Several actors, including Julia Jones, David Morse and Michael Spears, and director Alex Smith will attend the screening, to be held the evening of June 5th at the National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI) at One Bowling Green. I look forward to sharing my thoughts after. For now, check out the trailer and come on out! NMAI and the Festival’s entire program is free; only an RSVP is requested.
