5th Annual Femme Frontera Filmmaker Showcase and Q&A with Filmmakers
Join the Esperanza Peace and Justice Center and Latino Collection and Resource Center at the Central Library on Friday, March 19th at 7pm CT via Facebook, YouTube, & Twitter for the 5th Annual Femme Frontera Filmmaker Showcase and Q&A with several filmmakers, Xochitl Rodriguez, Jackie Barragan, and Morningstar Angeline.
Founded in 2016, the Femme Frontera Filmmaker Showcase began as a celebration of films made by women filmmakers from the U.S.-Mexico border region. Since then, the showcase has expanded to include powerful short films from around the world, whose stories challenge perceptions about women, border communities, immigrants, people of color, the LBGTQ community, and other underrepresented communities.
The 5th Annual Femme Frontera Filmmaker Showcase features seven selections by filmmakers Morningstar Angeline, Ebony Bailey, Jackie Barragan, Karolina Esqueda, Celina Galacia, Xochitl Rodriguez, and Amada Torruella.
