No where else in the world can you find the range of disciplines in one school. Over the last 50 years as we forged new programs, built our home in New York and expanded to our global academic centers, institutes emerged. Each are built with shared values, common goals, and a priority for putting students first. The result – a place where artists and scholars create the future.
Screening of Margarita With A Straw (Dirs: Shonali Bose and Nilesh Maniyar, 2015, 100 min.), a feature film about a rebellious young woman with cerebral palsy who leaves India to study in New York. On her journey of self-discovery, she unexpectedly falls in love.
Post-screening discussion with Director Shonali Bose.
