Film Screening: "In a Whisper" (A media voz)

Two filmmakers who have been best friends since childhood, both part of the Cuban diaspora, share their intimate and emotional journey while they try to find themselves and each other in a foreign land. In a Whisper (A media voz, 2019) is an intimate and revealing autoethnographic documentary about uprootedness, motherhood, love of film, friendship, and freedom.

This special event is presented as part of the Carsey-Wolf Center’s 2023 annual conference “ Theory Now .” The screening of In a Whisper will be followed by a special pre-recorded zoom discussion with filmmakers Heidi Hassan and Patricia Pérez Fernández, moderated by Cristina Venegas (Film and Media Studies, UCSB).
