The Bengali by Kavery Kaul: Dedicates Screening in Loving Memory to Michelle Materre

An untold story of ties between South Asians and African-Americans in the U.S.


In this documentary, an unlikely quest takes an African-American woman from New Orleans across deep divides of culture to India, in search of her family’s past. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Kavery Kaul, who dedicates the 7 pm, September 10 screening to long-time friend and colleague, Professor Emeritus of Media Studies at The New School and Founder of the Creatively Speaking Film Series, Michelle Materre. 


Join the School of Media Studies & Media Management Professors Neyda Martinez and Mark Walton who will remember our beloved Michelle Materre with director Kavery Kaul in an intimate conversation after the screening followed by a Q&A with the audience.

 

A discounted ticket price of $13 per ticket is available for the 7 pm screening on September 10 to New School Community Members. To receive the discount, you must present a valid New School ID at the Quad Cinema box office at the time of purchase.

Presented in collaboration with the School of Media Studies and The New School  Quad Cinema.
