Lionheart is a 2018 Nigerian drama film, and the first Netflix original film to be produced in Nigeria. Join Irvine Peck's-Agaya for a viewing and short-post movie discussion about major themes in the movie. Film Synopsis: "Running a company can be challenging, especially if you are a female in a male-dominated industry. Looking to prove her worth, Adaeze steps up to the challenge when her father is forced to take a step back due to health issues." Wednesday, May 13, 2020 4:00 PM EST | Relaxation and Conversation with Global Gateways Global Gateways, a program under the Asian American Cultural Center<mailto:https://asacc.uconn.edu/> (AsACC), will be leading simple activities and allow participants to follow along while we discuss how they are adjusting and coping with quarantine. As this session will be interactive and offer students a space to talk about their experiences, this session will not be recorded. ________________ Click to sign up<https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fisss.uconn.edu%2Fuconnglobalathome%2Finternational-scholar-mentors%2Fvirtual-cultural-demonstrations%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7Cb3ddb100354244a6eb4608d7edda1378%7C17f1a87e2a254eaab9df9d439034b080%7C0%7C0%7C637239393185842347&sdata=U8EXGjs72ZHCCcnLKYRPEIrw1dsuwGK%2FF%2FXCS5HW%2F5g%3D&reserved=0> and for more information about the sessions that interest you most!
