Description

IFF PRESENTS NEON'S BEBA IFF is excited to present an advance screening of Neon’s BEBA - the first film from New York Afro-Latina artist Rebeca Huntt. The documentary-memoir had its world premiere at the Toronto Film Festival, where it was hailed for its “originality, inventiveness and the urgency of Huntt’s voice,” Neon said in a statement. The film weaves together music, 16mm film, poetry and interviews. The daughter of a Dominican father and Venezuelan mother, Huntt, whose nickname is “Beba,” reflects on her childhood and adolescence in New York City while investigating the historical, societal and generational trauma she has inherited. Throughout the film, she searches for a way to forge her own creative path amidst racial and political unrest. FREE and open to the public. Seating is first come first served.
