SUMMARY:Film Showing: Run Boy Run
DESCRIPTION:Kristallnacht Commemoration and Santa Barbara Premiere\nWinner of 10 Film Festival Audience Awards \n  \nA superlative saga of courage and compassion\, Run Boy Run tells the extraordinary true story of a Polish boy who seeks the kindness of others in his solitary struggle to outlast the Nazi occupation and keep alive his Jewish faith. \nEscaping the Warsaw ghetto at the behest of his father\, nine-year old Srulik (movingly portrayed by twin child actors Andrzej and Kamil Tkacz) flees to the woods. There\, he learns to hide from SS patrols and scour for food\, until loneliness and the harsh onset of winter drive him back to civilization. Taken in by a kindhearted farmer’s wife (Elisabeth Duda)\, he is given shelter and a new identity. Passing himself off as Jurek\, a Christian war orphan\, the intrepid boy traverses the countryside from village to village\, working as a farmhand under an ever-present threat of persecution. Some will help him survive and others will betray him. Just when it seems his childhood memories and identity could be lost forever\, Jurek’s harrowing journey culminates in a powerhouse conclusion and postscript. \nAn unforgettable cinematic experience featuring exceptional performances\, arresting cinematography and transcendent musical score\, Run Boy Run is directed by Academy Award-winner Pepe Danquart and based on the bestselling Holocaust novel by Israeli author Uri Orlev. Newcomer Andy Tkacz plays Jurek together with a cast that includes Katarzyna Bargielowska (The Pianist)\, Rainer Bock (The White Ribbon)\, Jeanette Hain (Poll) and Itay Tiran (Lebanon).

SUMMARY:Slave Revolt on Screen: The Haitian Revolution in Film and Video Games
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to join us for the third meeting of the Colloquium for Latin American and Caribbean History as we welcome Alyssa Goldstein Sepinwall from the California State University\, San Marcos who will be presenting a paper entitled “‘Slave Revolts on Screen: The Haitian Revolution in Film and Videogames”. \nThe lecture considers existing films and video games on the Haitian Revolution in light of anthropologist Michel-Rolph Trouillot’s arguments about the “unthinkability” of this event. It will compare existing cinematic representations of the Revolution to current historiography on the Revolution\, as well as to recent video games which touch upon slave revolt in colonial Saint-Domingue. Is it possible that despite conventional wisdom about video games representing the past simplistically\, that such games could offer a better depiction than existing films\, let alone many textbooks?  In examining video games as well as films\, the paper will consider larger issues about the representation of slavery and of slave revolt in twenty-first century popular culture. \nAlyssa Goldstein Sepinwall is professor of history at California State University San Marcos. Prof. Sepinwall’s research focuses on the late 18th and early 19th centuries\, particularly in France and Haiti.  Her scholarship centers on the origins of modern thinking about difference\, whether religious\, racial\, linguistic or gender. She published The Abbé Grégoire and the French Revolution: The Making of Modern Universalism (University of California Press\, 2005)\, Haitian History: New Perspectives (Routledge\, 2012) and many articles and book chapters. \nThe event is cosponsored by the Department of History\, the Center for Black Studies\, the Colloquium for Caribbean and Latin American History\, and the Slavery\, Captivity\, and the Meaning of Freedom RFG Interdisciplinary Humanities Center. \nDownload the flyer here
