Chicago Latino Film Festival


Chicago Latino Film Fest returns for its 33rd year with a broad lineup of Latino films. Here are just a couple examples - check out their website for more:

The Way to Andina, USA
This documentary follows Arlen, who discovers his Colombian great-grandfather left behind a long lost opera that's never been performed. Despite having zero experience with opera, and not even speaking Spanish, he takes a leap of faith and decides to stage the opera. But after promising his entire family that the 80 year old Latin music will finally get a world premiere, is he in over his head?

Generation Wolf, USA
Vincent took the risk to found his own company, Del Toro Green Motors, in sunny California. His company specializes in refurbishing vintage cars and converting them into electric cars.  When a problem arises with the licensing bureau, Vincent is suddenly blocked from selling his cars, jeopardizing his business. In order to save his dream and his father’s house from bank repossession, Vincent finds himself tempted into other means of earning money. As Vincent falls deeper into the world of crime, he soon realizes his situation grows more brutal and dangerous than he ever imagined. 

Chicago: April 20 - May 4. Full lineup and details here.
