We are pleased to join the Documentary Film Legal Clinic for a special screening and celebration: they will present Ricochet (https://www.ricochetfilm.com/), a multiple award-winning documentary about a tragic death in San Francisco that set off a political furor and the public defenders who fought to defend an innocent, undocumented immigrant. The event will also serve as an opportunity to honor Dan Mayeda, who will be retiring from his position with the DFLC at the end of 2023. We have invited former DFLC clients (independent filmmakers), DFLC alums and UCLAW faculty and staff. If you are a current student interested in our DFLC program, do not miss this event!
