Description

Culture Project Blueprint for Accountability

directed by
FISHER STEVENS (ACADEMY AWARD-WINNER, THE COVE)

a fusion of theater, film, journalism and debate

RULE OF LAW:
Torture. Democracy. Privatization. Habeas Corpus.

Spurred by the one-year anniversary of the President's pronouncement to close Guantanamo, and the fates of nearly 200 detainees still hanging in the balance, Culture Project presents the second installment of its groundbreaking "Blueprint for Accountability" series at NYU Skirball Center to engage the public in constructing a "blueprint" for a more just and democratic future.

Assembling some of the most important and influential voices of our time to help us understand the unprecedented events, policies and circumventions of the past administration, the "Blueprint for Accountability" series fuses theater, film, debate, and discussion to call attention to these crimes, urging policy makers, elected officials, and world citizens to craft a decisive moral response, capable of restoring both America's dignity and standing throughout the international community.
