Dolores
Each month we present a film from a past Festival on the screen at Rocky Mountain Women’s Film office inside the Lincoln School. These screenings are free and open to the public with a suggested donation of $5. BYOB and a snack or simply show up for an inspirational evening!
Dolores Huerta is among the most important, yet least known, activists in American history. An equal partner in co-founding the first farm workers unions with Cesar Chavez, her enormous contributions have gone largely unrecognized. Dolores tirelessly led the fight for racial and labor justice alongside Chavez, becoming one of the most defiant feminists of the twentieth century—and she continues the fight to this day, at 87. With intimate and unprecedented access to this intensely private mother to eleven, the film reveals the raw, personal stakes involved in committing one’s life to social change. Directed by Peter Bratt.
Doors open at 6pm, Film begins at 6:30pm. Suggested $5 donation. All are welcome.
