Since the inauguration of President Rodrigo Duterte on June 30, the Philippines has received much attention in the media, unfortunately not all of it good. President Duterte’s domestic policy to date has focused on combating illegal drug trade by initiating a nationwide drug war that has already resulted in more than 2,000 murders. Now he says he is cutting off military relations with the U.S. and has welcomed new relations with China.

Additional support provided by the Center for Global Studies, Henry M. Jackson School
of International Studies, UW.

Wed., June 1: 2:30-4:30 p.m.
memorial day 3
That Which I Love Destroys Me is a unique and powerful film by director Ric Roman Waugh. TWILDM is an uncensored look at the current epidemic of PTSD and severe mental trauma that create tremendous challenges for returning service members. A five-year labor of love, TWILDM followed two Special Operations Soldiers as they returned home after fighting in the longest combat campaign in American history only to face a new battle; the effects and stigma of PTSD and reintegration as a whole. But more importantly, the documentary addresses how they’re overcoming these issues.

Our sincere thanks for your continued support of our student veterans and our program.  We hope to see you there!

SIFF correction and schedule update

Information given to the College about the SIFF film The Tenth Man, which is being shown on opening night, Fri., May 27 at 7 p.m., contained incorrect information. An initial synopsis of The Tenth Man stated that R&B singer Usher was to play the father of the lead character. The actor in that role is in fact named Usher Barilka, and has no affiliation with the R&B singer. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.

In addition, the film The Patriarch, which was scheduled to show on Sat., May 28 at 6 p.m. has been replaced with the film The Architect. Starring Parker Posey and Eric McCormack, The Architect is a “bizarrely comic tale of love, obsession, and deceit.”

More information and tickets can be found at www.siff.net.
