Episode Synopsis

Introducing Fog Horn, a new segment on Beyond the Fog Radio! Here, we'll share exciting new places and spotlight cultural events in the San Francisco Bay Area.

For our debut, we're joined by documentary filmmaker Marlene "Mo" Morris to discuss her film "From Here/From There" (De Aquí/De Allá), premiering May 3rd, 2024, at DocLands Film Festival in San Rafael. Mo is a former BAVC MediaMaker Fellow and CINE Golden Eagle Award recipient whose award-winning work has been broadcast on networks like PBS. Mo’s background as an immigration attorney informs her unique filmmaking perspective. In "From Here/From There," Mo highlights the high-stakes urgency of immigration reform through the story of DOCCA recipient Luis Cortes Romero, whose journey ultimately leads to a victorious outcome in the Supreme Court.
