• Special Documentary Film Screening: Marina of the Zabbaleen Wednesday, February 24th, 7:00pm Marína of the Zabbaleen is a cinematic documentary feature film that explores the world of seven-year-old Marína in the Muqqattam garbage recycling village in Cairo, Egypt.   An impressionistic portrait of childhood and family, the film also tells the story of the resourceful Zabbaleen, a Coptic Christian community of recyclers whose entrepreneurial waste management system produces one of the highest recycling rates in the world.  No people has felt the ramifications of the Swine Influenza pandemic more acutely than the Zabbaleen, whose way of life was devastated by the government-ordered eradication of the country’s pig population earlier last spring. Marína premiered at the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival, where Artistic Director Peter Scarlet was quoted as calling it ‘one of his favorite films at the festival’, and won a Muhr Award at the Dubai International Film Festival that December.  The film also received a good review from The New York Times and others.
