The Woodstock Film Festival Presents:
Screening of LIBERIA: THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE
Directed by Gerald K. Barclay
THE LOVE OF LIBERTY tells the personal story of Director Gerald K. Barclay whose family was forced to flee their homeland of Liberia after a coup in 1980, which led to a devastating 15-year civil war. After 24 years of being away from his homeland he's lost all desire to ever return to the now war ravaged nation. However, he is offered an assignment to produce a documentary on influence of Hip Hop on African culture, finding a relative in a Liberian refugee camp in Ghana. This set the fertile soil from which this journey of discovery turned film emerged.
Screening: Tuesday, April 19th, 7 pm
Where: Two Boots Pioneer Theater, 155 East 3rd Street (at Avenue A) in NYC (212) 591-4034
