NOTE: THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT
Some tickets may become available at rush on the day of the event, on a first come, first served basis.
Don't miss the award-winning documentary film SANSON AND ME which we had to postpone during our Festival in March due to the flooding. The event is free of charge. Register to secure your seats. Maximum four seats per order. Please arrive at least 15 minutes early or your seats will be given people the waiting list.
Film synopsis: During his day job as a Spanish criminal interpreter in a small town in California, filmmaker Rodrigo Reyes (499) met a young man named Sansón, an undocumented Mexican immigrant who was sentenced to life in prison without parole. With no permission to interview him, Sansón and Reyes worked together over a decade, using hundreds of letters as inspiration for recreations of Sansón’s childhood—featuring members of Sansón's own family.
The result is a vibrant portrait of a friendship navigating immigration and the depths of the criminal justice system and pushing the boundaries of cinematic imagination to rescue a young migrant's story from oblivion.
No se pierdan el premiado documental SANSON Y YO, el cual tuvimos que posponer durante Festival en marzo debido las inundaciones. Este evento es gratuito pero necesitan registrarse para asegurar asientos. Solo cuatro asientos por orden. Por favor lleguen por lo menos 15 minutos temprano, o sus asientos se asignaran a las personas que estan en la lista de espera.
La pelicula trata de dos migrantes mexicanos, un joven purgando una cadena perpetua en prisión y el cineasta que fue su intérprete judicial, quienes forman un lazo de amistad gracias a la vida y el cine.
