Cargo in Question: Two Films about Labor, Shipping, and Globalization in the 21st Century
Cargo in Question: Two Films about Labor, Shipping, and Globalization in the 21st Century
As part of this special event, Dr. Mae Miller-Likhethe and Dr. Charmaine Chua, assistant professors of Global Studies at UCSB, will screen two films—Cargo (2001, 29 minutes) and All that Perishes at the Edge of Land (2019, 31 minutes)—followed by a Q & A session and discussion (for a full 90 minutes). The films, which blur the lines between fiction and reality, offer important insights into the daily lives, working conditions, and dreams of seamen and ship-breakers across global supply chains.
