Appreciate the art of cinema? Join us to watch, then discuss a foreign film led by members of Geneva's International Cultural Exchange Committee (ICEC). This month's selection is Anita (Argentina), in honor of Disability Pride Month.
A young woman with Down syndrome lives a happy, routine life in Buenos Aires, being meticulously cared for by her mother Dora. One tragic morning, everything changes when Anita is left alone, confused and helpless after the nearby Argentine Israelite Mutual Association is bombed (the deadliest bombing in Argentina's history). As Anita wanders through the city, she learns not only to care for herself but also touches the lives of those around her. Released in 2009. Runtime 1hr 41min. Rated PG.
