The World Cup is coming to Brazil in 2014, and with it comes the attempted displacement of tens of thousands of residents. But in Fortaleza and other host cities, people are resisting this social cleansing and demanding their rights to housing and their right to the city. This documentary was launched at the International Congress of Right to the City Alliance in Boston, MA on October 1st, 2011.
Completion of the course included completion of a 4 6-minute short films produced by each youth on a topic that affects youths living in the City of Worcester. Youth participants are people of color, low-income, and those who otherwise would not have access to this kind of training, with a potential focus, in the future, on out of school youth. Graduating youth have been connected to potential internship and job opportunities with groups such as the Worcester Energy Barnraisers, Worcester Anti-Foreclosure Team, as well as options for local film festivals, and events for showcasing their work.
