Special Discussion About Iraqis Seeking Asylum And Issues Surrounding Ptsd In Soldiers And Refugees To Follow World Premiere Of The List At Tribeca Film Festival April 24, 2012

A conversation about the state of Iraqis seeking asylum and issues surrounding post-traumatic stress disorder in soldiers and refugees will follow the world premiere of The List as part of the Tribeca Film Festival’s Tribeca Talks: Globalize Your Thinking panel series, sponsored by OppenheimerFunds, on Tuesday, April 24 at 5:30 PM at SVA Theater 2, located at 333 West 23rd Street (between 8th and 9th Avenue), Manhattan.

The documentary follows Kirk Johnson who recently returned from rebuilding war-torn cities in Iraq as he advocates for a growing number of Iraqi citizens now targeted by radical militias because they aided the U.S. in the reconstruction effort.

The Tribeca Talks panel series brings film enthusiasts together with some of the biggest name directors, actors and industry leaders to explore a wide array of topics and spark a richer dialogue about film.

Tickets are $25 and can be purchased online at www.tribecafilm.com/festival/tickets starting April 16.
