#IAmVanessaGuillen to be shown at this year’s Human Rights Watch Film Festival

Protect Our Defenders is excited to announce that the incredible film, #IAmVanessaGuillen, produced by Univision, will be shown at the Human Rights Watch Film Festival in San Diego! The film follows Karina Lopez, a survivor who started a movement with the viral hashtag #IAmVanessaGuillen to fight back against the broken military justice after Vanessa’s tragic death at Fort Hood.  

From February 2 through February 9, HRWFF will be streaming a series of powerful and poignant films, including #IAmVanessaGuillen, and they’re making attendance extremely accessible so that all those who wish to participate in the festival may do so. For those interested in attending, be sure to use the code RESIST23 for a $7 ticket. Visit bit.ly/vanessaSD to learn more!
