Jean-Claude Carriere is a French screenwriter, dramatist, and iconoclast who's collaborated with the likes of Luis Bunuel and Jean-Luc Godard. Now he's brought his award-winning play, The Controversy of Valladolid, to the Public Theatre. It's about the debate in the 16th century Vatican over the legal and moral status of the indigenous population of the Americas.
