Pawtucket Rising is a 2008 documentary film directed and produced by Jason Caminiti.

The film tells the decade-long story of how the city of Pawtucket, Rhode Island revitalized itself and became known as "Rhode Island's Creative Community."

Synopsis

Using first hand discussions with the primary proponents of the revitilazation of Pawtucket, the film shows a community coming together behind the arts. The film shows new uses for historic mills, now being used as artists work and living spaces. An historic national guard armory is saved from decades of decay by a small theater company called the Sandra Feinstein Gamm Theater. Alongside the Gamm Theater, is a new arts centric high school called the Jacqueline Walsh High School for the Performing Arts. Pawtucket has also brought in other arts organizations from the Providence area, like the Foundry Artists Association. When the owners of the Foundry in Providence wanted to convert their building to living space, the working artists were displaced. They were invited to Pawtucket, and have been exhibiting once a year for two weeks near the holiday season.

Le long du centre urbain le plus au méridional de l’Afrique, gît une bande de terrain très particulière qui sépare la ville de l’océan. D’un côté bordé par l’Océan Atlantique en belle toile de fond et de l’autre par Signal Hill, la promenade maritime – et les piscines publiques en son milieu – forme un espace comme il n’en existe pas d’autre au Cap. Autrefois bastion de l’Apartheid, c’est aujourd’hui un lieu unique pour son apparente mixité d’âges, de races, de genres, de religions, de statuts sociaux ou d’orientations sexuelles. D’une certaine manière cet espace est devenu l’un de ceux où les sud-africains sentent qu’ils ont le droit d’exister – et où, par conséquent, les possibilités d’être heureux dans un monde divers sont envisageables.

There, this American of Cambodian origin plays chess with people; losers pay him five dollars, enabling him to survive another day. A caring community of sorts has formed around Saravuth. Sometimes fellow players bring him food or hot drinks. Playing guitar also makes Saravuth’s life on the streets more bearable.
