OUR SPEAKER: Gustavo Furtado, who led the discussion on Tampopo last season (as well as many others over the years) is our speaker. Gustavo is Professor of Art, Art History & Visual Studies at Duke, as well as Professor of Romance Languages, and he is the former Director of the Amazon Lab at Duke's John Hope Franklin Institute. Among his many publications is a 2019 book about documentary film-making, in particular in Brazil.
