Caribbean Film Series
BAM’s annual series brings the richness, uniqueness, and diversity of Caribbean cinema to Brooklyn with a weekend festival. Join us for two deeply personal works that bring together fact and fiction, imagination and history, to shine a light on families in the Caribbean and across the diaspora.

This haunting, evocative work from Miryam Charles weaves together her family’s personal tragedy with the story of their immigration from Haiti in a meditation of loss, displacement, and belonging.

Dominican filmmaker Victoria Linares sets out to reclaim personal and national history through the life and art of her uncle Oscar Torres, a pioneering Caribbean filmmaker and queer political activist.
