Professor’s Film to Screen at Workers Unite! Festival

Andreas Hernandez, Professor of International Studies, will screen his documentary film “Soil, Struggle and Justice: Agroecology in the Brazilian Landless Movement” at Cinema Village on May 14th as part of the Workers Unite! Film Festival.

The official page for the screening states that Hernandez’s film “examines a cooperative of the Brazilian Landless Movement (MST) in the South of Brazil, which struggled for access to land and then transitioned to ecological agriculture, or agro-ecology. This MST cooperative is demonstrating the possibility of an alternative model of flourishing rural life, which provides thriving livelihoods for farmers, produces high quality and low cost food for the region, and rehabilitates the earth.”

Congrats to Dr. Hernandez!
