The Mexican writer Carlos Fuentes once mused that the U.S. seemed destined to become the “United States of Latinos.” His remark speaks to a social and demographic shift, and taps into the fears and hopes of a nation divided over what it means to be American. The Latino Film Festival and Conference showcases the richness and complexity of Latino life, both in the U.S. and at its margins. Migration, work, family, sexuality, race, love, (il)legality, yearning—these themes define Latino realities, just as they define Latino cinema. Latinas’ and Latinos’ lives are global, interconnected, and integral to the making of America.


The festival and conference are sponsored by Chicano-Riqueño Studies Program, Latino Studies Program, Black Film Center/Archive, Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies, Department of Communication and Culture, Department of History, Department of Spanish and Portuguese, Department of American Studies, College Arts and Humanities Institute, Office of the Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs, College of Arts and Sciences, La Casa - Latino Cultural Center, and IU Cinema. Special thanks to John Nieto-Phillips, Anke Birkenmaier, and Geneva Gano.

All screenings in this series are free, but ticketed.
