Dear all, 

It is with great pleasure that I write to share some good news: 
Our beloved Documentary Studies program will be featured at this year’s (Online) DOC NYC, with four films by the last year’s graduate filmmakers in the ‘University Showcase‘. Kudos to our outstanding students Amrit Cheng, Maliyamungu Muhande, Claire Haughey and Lillian Xuege Li whose films are in the showcase, and who managed to complete their work under very difficult circumstances. 

“OK Boomer” by Amrit Cheng.
“Nine Days a Week” by Maliyamungu Muhande.
“Hidden Costs” by Claire Haughey.
“Park Life” by Lillian Xuege Li.

Also, big kudos to our remarkable Doc Studies faculty – Silvia Vega-LlonaRafael ParraPeter SillenDeirdre BoyleTed RobinsonErin Greenwell and our exceptional program associates and student assistants of Fall 2019/Spring 2020 – Mariana Sanson and Thalia Noboa. Special thanks to our outstanding program assistant, Marcos Echeverria Ortiz, who helped compile the films.
