Looking beyond the meager possibilities that seem available to her (and ignoring the advice of her gang-member friends), she finds solace and hope in her training and falls in love with a middle-class journalism student. With an extraordinary performance by Alma Blanco as Yuma, the strength, astuteness and determination of the main character reflect the feelings of a population that faces adversity and inequality. Jaugey\u2019s film allows us the rare opportunity to get a glimpse of life in this Central American country where gender and class inequality are an everyday challenge.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\" col-12 col-md-2\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t<a class=\"btn btn-primary btn-lg\"\n\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/ucf.qualtrics.com\/jfe\/form\/SV_0VZ1cPoamqstBXw\"\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\tRSVP\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<section id=\"carajita\" class=\"ucf-section ucf-section-ff-23-carajita auto-section \" data-section-link-title=\"Carajita\" aria-label=\"Carajita\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"jumbotron jumbotron-fluid bg-inverse text-inverse mt-0 mb-0 pt-4 pb-0\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"container\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\n<h2 class=\"heading-underline\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pragda.com\/film\/carajita\/\">Carajita<\/a><\/h2>\n<p class=\"lead\">Silvina Schnicer, Ulises Porra \/ Argentina, Dominican Republic \/ 2021 \/ 89 Min<br \/>\n<strong>Date<\/strong>: Saturday, September 23, 2023<br \/>\n<strong>Time<\/strong>: 2:30 PM &#8211; Film Viewing<br \/>\n4:00 &#8211; 5:00 PM &#8211; Reception and post-film discussion Dominican Republic Consulate<br \/>\n<strong>Location<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/500+W+Livingston+St,+Orlando,+FL+32801\/@28.5465523,-81.3881395,17z\/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x88e77a5669d23e6f:0xa5bc5541dab2e64e!8m2!3d28.5465476!4d-81.3855646!16s%2Fg%2F11c3q3gyd8?entry=tts&amp;shorturl=1\">UCF Downtown Campus<\/a>, Communications and Media Building (CMB) 127<\/p>\n<div style=\"padding: 56.25% 0 0 0; position: relative;\"><iframe style=\"position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/649423771?h=23682de117\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/api\/player.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"jumbotron jumbotron-fluid bg-secondary pt-4 pb-0\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"container\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\" col-12 col-md-10\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\n<h4>SYNOPSIS<\/h4>\n<p><em>Spanish with English subtitles<br \/>\n<\/em>With Cecile Van Welie, Magnolia N\u00fa\u00f1ez, Adelanny Padilla<\/p>\n<p>Featuring striking cinematography and outstanding performances, Carajita (which means annoying child) explores the tenuous relationship that exists between race, class, and family.<\/p>\n<p>Sarah, the pampered daughter of a corrupt oligarch whose family recently relocated to Las Terrenas, thinks of her Black Dominican nanny, Yarisa, as \u201cpart of the family.\u201d The two have a \u201cmother-daughter-like\u201d relationship that transcends their social standing.
