Come to the Equity Center to watch the movie Crossing (2024) and eat themed snacks! All are welcome to attend. Movie description: “Lia, a retired teacher from Georgia, learns from her young neighbor, Achi, that her long-lost transgender niece, Tekla, has crossed the border into Turkey. In search of Tekla, Lia travels to Istanbul with the unpredictable Achi, where they explore the hidden depths of the city.” Through a transnational and educational lens, this film screening invites participants to explore themes of migration, gender identity, and intergenerational learning across cultural and geographic borders.
