Film Screening: Tre Maison Dasan ~ Meet the Filmmaker Denali Tiller and the Boys Tre, Maison, and Dasan

Join us for an exclusive screening of the multi award-winning film, Tre Maison Dasan, as seen on PBS’ Independent Lens.

Tre Maison Dasan is a film about three boys— Tre, Maison, and Dasan— who share the experience of having a parent in prison. Filmed over three years in Rhode Island, this intimate documentary takes on the kids’ own point of view. Through their eyes we see the complex emotional and social landscape surrounding parental incarceration in a way never before shown. RISD filmmaker Denali Tiller and the boys will answer questions after the film. This program has been made possible through major funding support from the RI Council for the Humanities, an independent state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Friends of the East Providence Public Library.
