Filmmaker Alex Rivera has been telling new, urgent and visually adventurous Latino stories for the past fifteen years. Sleep Dealer (2008), his first feature, is a Sundance award-winning science-fiction film that carries embedded in it profound political and economic critiques. It’s the perfect conversation-starter for discussions about issues as diverse as labor and immigration, technology and ethics, and globalization and the environment. Rivera's lecture (at 5:45p.m.) and screening (at 7 p.m.) are presented in conjunction with Our America: The Latino Presence in American Art, a Smithsonian American Art Museum exhibition on view at the UMFA through June 28. Museum admission is free 4:45 - 5:45.
