Directed by Yusuf Zine, this is the sixth film in the Fall 2019 Cinema 10 series.
I Am Rohingya: A Genocide in Four Acts follows a group of refugees in Canada who take to the stage to recreate their persecution by security forces and others in Myanmar. Without any prior acting experience, fourteen youths between the ages of 8 and 22 tell a story of violence, death, and countless human rights violations. Mixing in-depth interviews, rehearsal footage, and staged performances, I Am Rohingya is the harrowing tale of a people whose voices will not be silenced, providing "lessons in how profound trauma can be worked through and converted into art, applause, affirmation, acknowledgment" (Mike McCahill, The Guardian). Cinema 10 is honored to host director Yusuf Zine after the film for a Q&A
I Am Rohingya: A Genocide in Four Acts (2018, Canada, d. Yusuf Zine) is 84 minutes long and NR.
