As San Diego comes together to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the San Diego Latino Film Festival (SDLFF) mix and mingle with celebrities, filmmakers, and civic and community leaders. Enjoy live music, great food, and a great time!
Showcasing the latest in Latino cinema, from the highly anticipated documentary Hecho en Mexico featuring Diego Luna, the historical drama Cinco de Mayo: La Batalla, to the film that delves into the life and mystery shrouded murder of Mexican presidential candidate Colosio, this year's SDLFF promises to bring a unique and exciting film experience to audiences and participants. Other standout films this year include Luna Escondida with Ana Serradilla, K-11 with Kate del Castillo, Chiapas: The Heart of Coffee featuring Jaime Camil, and Heleno starring Rodrigo Santoro, plus the international premiere of Marcelo with Héctor Jiménez & Aarón Díaz. Guests will also enjoy access to star-studded galas, parties and workshops with filmmakers.
The SDLFF is truly a binational celebration with festivities spanning across the border into Tijuana, Mexico where the CECUT (Centro Cultural de Tijuana) will present films for Tijuana audiences. One of the highlights of the SDLFF's 20th Anniversary will be the screening of our top 10 groundbreaking and influential Latino films from the past 20 years, funded by the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences. Audiences will have the opportunity to see films that revolutionized Latino cinema and captured worldwide attention such as Amores Perros, City of God and Cronos on the big screen. Start celebrating at the Opening Gala on Thursday, March 7th; and enjoy films and special events over the next 11 days, including the Centerpiece Gala on March 13th, and the Closing Gala on Saturday, March 16th.
