SUMMARY:Fire Through Dry Grass (2023\, 89 minutes) screening and discussion with film directors Andres “Jay” Molina and Alexis Neophytides\, moderated by director of Proclaiming Disability Arts\, Simi Linton
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, March 1 5:00-7:30 PM\n19 University Place\, New York University Theater 102\n  \n\n  \n \nA film poster with the title “Fire Through Dry Grass” in bold yellow handwritten block letters. An image of 5 Black and brown men in wheelchairs\, looking straight into the camera\, is above the text. They are on a dark gray background that has layered yellow drawings intricately arranged: a brick building\, a man in a mask\, varied excerpts of poetry\, and a seagull\, to name a few. \nThis award-winning documentary chronicles the devastation experienced by residents of a NYC nursing home during the coronavirus pandemic. The film takes viewers inside Coler\, on Roosevelt Island\, where director Jay Molina lives with his fellow Reality Poets\, a group of mostly gun violence survivors. Instead of history repeating itself on this tiny island with a dark history of institutional neglect and abandonment\, Fire Through Dry Grass shows these disabled Black and Brown artists refusing to be abused\, confined\, erased.\nEvent is free and open to the public.\nWe ask all attendees to wear masks as a result of COVID. \nVenue is wheelchair accessible. ASL and CART will be provided. Film is open captioned. \nAudio description available on request. \nPlease include accessibility needs as they relate to the event in the registration\, or email msf440@nyu.edu. \n\n  \nCo-Sponsored by NYU Center for Media\, Culture & History\, Proclaiming Disability Arts\, NYU Department of Cinema Studies\, NYU Kanbar Institute of Film\, Television and Media.
