TC ASL Club: International Week of the Deaf – Deaf Film Screening: Alfredo Corrado

Come join us at Teachers College, Columbia University for the engaging French Sign Language (LSF) documentary film, Alfredo Corrado, as part of the International Week of the Deaf celebration.

Film Director Julien Bourges retraces the life of Alfredo Corrado, an American Deaf Artist.
Alfredo Corrrado came to Paris in the late 1970s, at a time when sign language was forbidden and scorned.

This unique documentary on Alfredo Corrado recounts the creation of International Visual Theater (IVT) and the adventures of the first deaf theater in France at the Château de Vincennes, which changed the history of deaf people in France.

Learn about a revolutionary and important figure in French Deaf History. Experience the world from another perspective. See you there!
