Visiting Filmmakers Series presents

Faya Dayi with Jessica Beshir

Hosted by Professor May Santiago

Monday, October 3, 2022, at 6:00pm

Johnson Center Cinema

Free and open to the public.

Join us for a screening of the 2022 Oscar-shortlisted documentary, Faya Dayi, and a conversation with filmmaker Jessica Beshir.  At once poetic and incisive, the film explores the complex worlds of khat, a euphoria-inducing and addictive plant once valued for its purportedly mystical properties, with a focus on communities in Harar, Ethiopia.
