Anglo-American University in Prague Film night & Discussion: VISA TO PARADAISE
Join us for a special screening of Visa al Paraíso, organized in collaboration with the LAC Center AAU, the Embassy of Mexico in Prague, and the United Nations.
The evening will include a short discussion with distinguished guests:
Mr. Michal Broža, Head of the United Nations Information Centre in Prague (UNIC)
H.E. Berenice Díaz Ceballos, the Ambassador of Mexico
🎬 Visa al Paraíso tells the extraordinary story of Mexican diplomat Gilberto Bosques, Consul General in Marseille (1939–1942), who issued visas and offered shelter to thousands of refugees, among them Jews and Spanish Republicans helping them escape Nazi persecution. By renting safe houses and coordinating onward journeys, Bosques became a remarkable example of diplomatic courage and humanitarian action.
