Austin Film Society presents MARJOUN AND THE FLYING HEADSCARF.
Director Susan Youssef in attendance. Youssef graduated from University of Texas at Austin’s RTF program, and was a recipient of several AFS Grants prior to making this film.
Marjoun is creating her own identity as a Muslim American teenager in Little Rock, Arkansas. Poignantly, she attends the infamous high school which served as a powerful symbol of school desegregation in 1957. With her punked-up, safety-pin-laden hijab dancing in the wind, Marjoun roars into Southern consciousness on her motorcycle.
Tuesday, September 24 at 7:00 PM. General admission tickets are $11.25 with member discounts available.
