Screening of ‘The Hollow Tree’ with Director Kira Akerman

Join us for the Boston premiere of “Hollow Tree,” hosted by the Harvard Hutchins Center’s History Design Studio and co-sponsored by HGSE. The 73-minute award-winning documentary follows three young women as they travel to different sites along the Mississippi River and imagine Louisiana’s past — its history of slavery, Indigenous dispossession, and colonization — and, by extension, Louisiana’s future. The screening will be followed by a conversation with Director Kira Akerman, Ed.M. candidate 2024, and Producer Monique Walton and the documentary film’s three protagonists, Mekenzie Fanguy, Annabelle Pavy, and Tanielma DaCosta.  Reserve your advance tickets here.
