18 IUS SOLI is a new documentary by Ghanaian-Italian filmmaker Fred Kuwornu. He examines the law that denies citizenship to young people born in Italy to immigrant parents because they have no “Italian” blood.
INSIDE BUFFALO tells the history of the 92nd “Buffalo Soldiers” Infantry Division, the first African-American combat unit to fight in World War II. Inside Buffalo won “Best Documentary” at the Black Berlin International Film Festival and it has been shown at more than 200 venues in the U.S.
