Join Feminist Fightback Filmclub this September as in collaboration with Nanny Solidarity Network we screen Roma (2018, 135mins) by Alfonso Cuarón
Roma is an epic film that delivers a vivid, emotional portrait of a domestic worker’s journey set against domestic and political turmoil in 1970s Mexico. Oscar winner Alfonso Cuarón recreates the early-1970s Mexico City of his childhood, narrating a tumultuous period in the life of a middle-class family through the experiences of Cleo, the indigenous domestic worker who keeps the household running. Charged with the care of four small children abandoned by their father, Cleo tends to the family even as her own life is shaken by personal and political upheavals.
