Join the Center for Folklore Studies for a screening and discussion of I See Red People/Je vois rouge (2018), a documentary film about post-communist Bulgaria. This event is FREE and open to the public! Food/refreshments will be provided.
From the director, Bojina Panayotova: "After twenty-five years spent in France, I return to Bulgaria, camera in hand, with a vertiginous suspicion: what if my family had collaborated with the political police of the communist regime? And what if they were part of the "red trash" that the demonstrators on the street want to see disappear? I decide to investigate and to film, constantly, ready for anything. My adventure transforms itself into a tragic comic odyssey, a mix of an espionage and a family film."
This event is part of the Center for Folklore Studies' Ethnographic Film Series, and is co-sponsored by the Department of Comparative Studies Lecture and Colloquia Committee.
