FREE Virtual Pre-Release Screening "I Am Belmaya" + Q&A with Co-Director Sue Carpenter

Date: Wednesday, February 2, 2022
Time: 7:30 pm Eastern

Join The Conversationalist magazine for a FREE pre-release virtual screening of “I Am Belmaya” followed by an intimate Q&A with co-director Sue Carpenter on WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 2 at 7:30 pm Eastern (4:30pm Pacific). I AM BELMAYA is an inspirational tale of rebellion, courage and hope in patriarchal Nepal.

Silenced and subjugated for most of her life and denied an education, Belmaya takes up the movie camera to tell her story. Spanning 14 years, Sue Carpenter and Belmaya Nepali‘s feature-length documentary follows Belmaya’s transformational journey as she stands up to her husband and society, and reclaims her voice through filmmaking.

I Am Belmaya has not been released in the U.S. yet, but the film has won several awards, including Best Documentary at the UK Asian Film Festival.

Tickets are sponsored by The Conversationalist, a feminist nonprofit magazine. This movie has not been released in the U.S. yet, so this is a special screening.
