Location: 536 Ouray Ave., Grand Junction
Details: DocuFilm Screening followed by Q & A - "Docked", a film about the plight of sheepherders working the Western Range of the Rocky Mountains "Docked" by Sarah C. Sifers - Producer, Director, Cinematographer, Writer ??? DATE: Friday, January 19th ? TIME: 5:30pm ??LOCATION: 536 Ouray Ave, Grand Junction, Colorado ??Suggestion donation of $10 at the door - all proceeds go to HAP: Hispanic Affairs Project, promoting immigrant integration through advocacy, leadership development, and the provision of key services. Docked exams the plight of sheepherders working the Western Range of the Rocky Mountains through the eyes of Tom Acker (a human rights activist), Ignacio Alvarado (a former sheepherder from Chile) and Lionel (a current sheepherder from Chile) as he works his sheep through the ranges in Colorado and Wyoming. Brought into the country through the Department of Labor's (DOL) H2A temporary visa program because no American is willing to work under these conditions, they are paid $750 a month for a job that requires being on call 24/7. With the rational that these sheepherders are being brought in from third world countries where they would have earned less money and lived in similar conditions, the film explores whether that is a valid argument for denying these sheepherders basic human rights.
