Join us for a film screening by a Hispanic/Chicane/Latine filmmaker. We will be presenting films that preserve, promote and/or advance the vast cultural identity and experience of Hispanic/Chicane/Latine people.

Julio Torres’ Problemista is the story of Alejandro, an aspiring toy designer from El Salvador, struggling to bring his unusual ideas to life in New York City. As time on his work visa runs out, a job assisting an erratic art-world outcast becomes his only hope to stay in the country and realize his dream. From writer/director Julio Torres comes a surreal adventure through the equally treacherous worlds of New York City and the U.S. Immigration system.
