Mexico Through the Lens of Women Filmmakers

The Moody College’s Latino Media Arts and Studies Program, Cine Las Americas, and Malakita Productions present the film series “Mexico Through the Lens of Women Filmmakers,” which presents four films from contemporary women filmmakers, honored at international and national film festivals. The screenings aim to reflect an identity and a sense of belonging for the Latino and Hispanic communities. 

The selection of films centers on the actual lives of people living in Mexico, while centering on a female perspective. These films share Mexican women filmmakers’ strong and creative points of view as a mirror of cultural identification. They look to create dialogue and reflection with the audience by showing an opportunity to know more about culture and social topics, by bringing up an emotional experience.
