MONDAY 12th March: Free film screening about being a mother and illness in Kenya



As part of the Royal Anthropological Institute's Discover Anthropology education programme we are showing a number of films upstairs in the meeting room. The film screenings are designed for people new to anthropology and are completely free. The one on Monday is an intimate account of a woman's life, motherhood, children and illness in western Kenya, as well as an insight into the nature of ethnographic fieldwork (i.e what do anthropologists actually do!?). Wenzel Geissler from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical medicine, who was one of the film-makers will on hand to talk about the making of the film and answer any questions. To book a place email Gem on education@therai.org.uk, 0207 387 0455
