SUMMARY:Documentary Screening: Lindy Lou\, Juror Number 2
DESCRIPTION:The Consulate General of Belgium in Atlanta is organizing this film screening with support from the Southern Center for Human Rights as part of the marking of the World Day against the Death Penalty\, to shine a light on the death penalty’s heavy consequences for all who are touched by it. \nThe screening will take place at the Franco-German Cultural Center at 233 Peachtree Center Suite 100 in Downtown Atlanta\, from 6:30pm until 9pm on October 11th. Light refreshments will be provided. The film begins at 7 pm\, followed by a Q&A after the film with Lindy Lou Isonhood\, who will be attending the screening in person. \nLimited seats\, first come\, first serve + registration required. Please unregister if no longer attending. \n  \nDocumentary synopsis: \nCommitted to fulfilling her civic duty\, Lindy sat on a jury with 11 other jurors that handed down the death penalty to a Mississippi man convicted in a double homicide. When Bobby Wilcher was executed in 2006\, Lindy had been his only visitor in 15 years. Determined to understand the overwhelming regret that she has been grappling with for years\, Lindy takes off on a road trip across Mississippi to track down and learn more about her fellow jurors tasked with deciding the fate of a man’s life all those years earlier. Lindy\, a conservative\, religious woman from the South\, manages to tackle this oft-politicized topic with humor\, an open mind and sincere curiosity.

SUMMARY:International Business Webinar Series "Revisiting Export Strategy: Research and Practice"
DESCRIPTION:Exporting is arguably the most consequential international business (IB) and international\nmarketing (IM) activity undertaken by firms. It is also the backbone of IB initiatives\, with\nMNCs and other large international firms being among the largest exporters. Recently\, the\nanti-globalization theme has regained momentum\, especially following the COVID-19\npandemic\, the war in Ukraine\, and subsequent supply chain bottlenecks. These disruptions\nhave demonstrated the importance of exporting and importing not only for finished goods but\nalso commodities. Paradoxically\, as compared to the past\, far less research on exporting topics\nis published in academic journals lately. Research activity on exporting as an alternative to\nmore involved forms of IB/IM engagement does not appear to have gained much momentum\namong scholars. \nThe goal in this webinar is to present exporting’s role in IB/IM research and practice. They will\nalso discuss how exporting strategy can respond to fundamental shifts in globalization\n(e.g.\, digitalization\, anti-globalization\, strong dollar)\, and disruptive changes in global climate\n(e.g.\, politics\, economic\, the pandemic). The webinar will highlight country and company\nillustrations and will provide various lenses through which scholars and practitioners might\napproach exporting. The target audiences include academics\, researchers\, and practitioners \nKey Takeaways:\n– The ubiquity and importance of exporting within IM/IB\n– Responding to fundamental global shifts and disruptive forces through exporting\n– Issues and topics for future export research consideration (areas\, conceptualizations\, and\nmethods)

SUMMARY:1982: Atlanta movie opening with Director\, Oualid Mouaness
DESCRIPTION:Alif Institute is proud to collaborate with Director Oualid Mouaness to bring his new newest film\, 1982\, to the Plaza Theater Plaza Atlanta! Stay after for a Q&A and meet the director! \nA Cinematic Wonder… 1982 keeps you on the edge of your seat\, heart in your throat from beginning to end.” In his debut feature\, Oualid Mouaness delivers an ode to innocence in which he revisits one of the most cataclysmic moments in Lebanon’s history through the lens of a child and his vibrant imagination. It demonstrates the complexities of love and war and the resilience of the human spirit. 1982 opens at The Plaza Theater on Friday\, October 21 at 8 PM followed by Q&A with the director. \nQuestions? Please email info@alifinstitute.org. \n  \nFilm Synopsis: \n“1982” is a life-affirming coming-of-age tale set at an idyllic school in Lebanon’s mountains on the eve of a looming invasion. It unfolds over a single day and follows an 11-year-old boy’s relentless quest to profess his love to a girl in his class. As the invasion encroaches on Beirut\, it upends the day\, threatening the entire country and its cohesion. Within the microcosm of the school\, the film draws a harrowing portrait of a society torn between its desire for love and peace and the ideological schisms unraveling its seams. \n“1982” won the Cannes Film Festival’s youth sidebar’s PRIX CANNES ECRANS JUNIORS 2021 (Cannes Cinéphiles)\, the Toronto International Film Festival’s NETPAC AWARD\, a FIPRESCI International Critics Prize at El-Gouna\, and the UNICEF 2021 Prize among numerous others. The film was Lebanon’s official submission to the 92nd Academy Awards and holds the Murex D’Or\, Lebanon’s Best Feature Film honor of the last two years.
