July 29 & 31: Meerkat Media Collective Premieres Documentary at HBO New York International Latino Film Festival

The Meerkat Media Collective (How Wal-Mart Came to Haslett, Every Third Bite) is premiering their first collaboratively created feature documentary, Stages, at the HBO New York International Latino Film Festival next week! The two screenings are Wednesday July 29th at 3:30pm and Friday July 31st at 5:00pm. Check out this link to learn more, watch the trailer and get tickets.

Stages takes place in New York City’s changing Lower East Side, where a group of older Puerto Rican women are brought together with a group of inner city youths to create an original play from the stories of their lives. Over a twenty-week period, the participants confront stereotypes and examine their own histories, exploring themes of immigration, relationships, coming of age and growing older.
