Thank You Essex Community College

The production and promotion team of The Yellow Room warmly thanks the students and staff at Essex Community College for an awesome screening of The Yellow Room, today.  It was a great experience.  This was the first college campus that hosted a screening of the film and it was such a success! The students enriched the discussion session of the event with their thoughtful questions and active participation.  We all look forward to working with ECC again next semester with a screening of Assal's next film, A Day in Eden.

THANKS AGAIN ESSESX COMMUNITY COLLEGE FOR A GREAT SCREENING!!

The Yellow Room Screening at Essex Community College

The Yellow Room which was released in 2012 by Assal Ghawami Productions is going to be screened at Essex Community College in March, during Women's History Month.  The Yellow Room is about a young Pakistani woman, Sanaz, played by Sabba Hussain, who seeks help from a Hispanic medicine woman, Teresa, played by Yvette Mercedes, at her obscure tenement home.  

Sanaz seeks Teresa's help when she finds she is pregnant and decides to end her unplanned pregnancy with a centuries old herbal remdey--Ruda.  As Sanaz struggles with the internal conflict of ending ending her pregnancy, she must deal with the conflicting personality of Amy, played by Alexandra Manzano, who shares her secret in Teresa's tenement home.
