À propos de cet audio
As the New York Film Festival celebrates its 25th anniversary in September, Calixto Chinchilla, who founded the premiere showcase of Latinx motion pictures in New York while still living with his mother in public housing in 1998, joins Led and Octavio in an inspirational episode of Uptown Voices.
Chinchilla's grit and perseverance helped him land a key meeting with HBO, establishing NYLFF as a cornerstone of the Latino film industry. His strength and tenacity has also helped open the doors to an industry, well-known for its insularity, for countless young creators.
For 25 years, Chinchilla and the NYLFF have not only shined a much-needed spotlight on Latino films they've also, since the very first festival, created a latino film marketplace, where filmmakers can not only get much needed attention, but where they can strike deals.
Tune in for never-before told behind the scenes stories of what happened over a quarter century at the premiere Latino film festival in New York City.
