SANTA BARBARA — The UCSB Multicultural Center will present the Cup of Culture film screening of “Documented” at 6 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 12 at UCSB.
In 2011, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jose Antonio Vargas outed himself as an undocumented immigrant in an essay published in the New York Times Magazine. Documented chronicles his journey to America from the Philippines as a child; his journey through America as an immigration reform activist; and his journey inward as he reconnects with his mother, who he hasn’t seen in person in more than 20 years.
Jose Antonio Vargas, Ann Raffaela Lupo, 89 min., English, Tagalog and Spanish, 2013, USA, Philippines. Co-sponsored by UCSB Undocumented Student Services. Visit www.mcc.ucsb.edu for more information.
