Tonight: See The Documentary ‘Life And Debt’ For Free At All Souls Bethlehem Church

Tonight, Friday, July 31, everyone’s invited to a free movie night at All Souls Bethlehem Church (566 E. 7th Street, between Cortelyou Road and Ditmas Avenue).

Beginning at 7pm, the church will screen “Life and Debt,” a documentary by filmmaker Stephanie Black that details the political and economic fallout of globalization in Jamaica.

The movie’s website describes the film:

Utilizing excerpts from the award-winning non-fiction text “A Small Place” by Jamaica Kincaid, Life & Debt is a woven tapestry of sequences focusing on the stories of individual Jamaicans whose strategies for survival and parameters of day-to-day existence are determined by the U.S. and other foreign economic agendas. By combining traditional documentary telling with a stylized narrative framework, the complexity of international lending, structural adjustment policies and free trade will be understood in the context of the day-to-day realities of the people whose lives they impact.
