Annemarie Jacir (Salt of This Sea), a Tribeca All Access alum whose new film When I Saw You won the 2011 Tribeca All Access Ontrack Narrative Grant, will speak live at the New York Public Library as part of Rolex Arts Weekend on Saturday, November 12th at 3pm.

She'll be speaking with a panel of film industry colleagues who are linked to her work, including Danny Glover, who's producing When I Saw You, and Peter Scarlet, Executive Director of the Abu Dhabi Film Festival, where Jacir has served on a jury.
