Screening of “Hudson, America” Documentary and Q&A with Filmmaker Zuzka Kurtz Co-directed by Zuzka Kurtz and Geoffrey Hug, “Hudson, America” (2022, 101 minutes) follows six Gen-Z Bangladeshi American immigrants living in Hudson, NY. The unexpected political events of 2016 to 2022 derailed the joyous college trajectory for these young people, propelling them to confront anti-immigrant sentiments, their conservative parents’ ideas of “The American Dream,” and the true cost of forbidden love. For six years, filmmakers Kurtz and Hug followed the students as they bid farewell to their reclusive community and arrived in an unfamiliar world. A Q&A with filmmaker Zuzka Kurtz follows the screening.
