Hats Off profiles the beauty and eccentricities of an extraordinary woman, 93-year-old actress Mimi Weddell.

The Sugar Babies
Directed by Amy Serrano
May 28 to June 1
Special Guests, Director Amy Serrano, Composer Bill Cruz, and Armando Valladares - former US Amb. to UN Human Rights Commission
While exposing those who continue to profit, the feature-length documentary film "The Sugar Babies: The Plight of the Children of Agricultural Workers in the Sugar Industry of the Dominican Republic" vividly explores the lives of the descendants of the first Africans delivered to the island of Hispaniola for the bittersweet commodity that once ruled the world. These very same people continue to be trafficked to work in sugar under circumstances that can only be considered modern day slavery... “The Sugar Babies" examines the moral price of sugar -- present and past -- from the perspective of the conditions surrounding the children of sugar cane cutters of Haitian ancestry in the Dominican Republic, and the continuing denial of their basic human rights.
