Description

Join the Holocaust, Genocide, Memory Studies, the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies, Department of English, and Program in Comparative and World Literature for a special advance screening of FINDING OSCAR. In a forgotten massacre during Guatemala’s decades-long civil war, a young boy was spared, only to be raised by one of the very soldiers who killed his family. Nearly 30 years after the tragedy, it will take a dedicated team – from a forensic scientist to a young Guatemalan prosecutor – to uncover the truth and bring justice to those responsible…by finding the missing boy named Oscar.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Ryan Suffern, moderated by Brett Ashley Kaplan.
