Wa Na Wari and the Sankofa Film Society present two back-to-back films by first-generation Ethiopian American filmmaker Gabrielle Tesfaye: The Water Will Carry Us Home, a stop-motion feature about Africans who, after being stolen from their home, are thrown off a slave ship while sailing through the Middle Passage, and My Love, Ethiopia, set during a time of political tyranny during the Red Terror war in 1970's Ethiopia. Stay on Zoom after the films for a talkback with the director.
