Los Angeles, CA. Today was beyond incredible—I had the honor of meeting the cast of La Liberación and the founders of the GuadaLAjara Film Festival! Let me tell you, this experience wasn’t just about meeting talented actors and filmmakers; it was about connecting with people who are redefining how Mexican and Mexican-American stories are told.

Meeting the founders

The festival founders were so inspiring. They shared how their mission isn’t just to celebrate Mexican cinema but also to bridge the storytelling gap between Mexico and the United States. Hearing from them, I realized the importance of representing both sides of the border—not just Mexican stories, but Mexican-American ones too. They’re committed to showcasing the diversity, resilience, and beauty of both cultures, creating a platform for voices that are often underrepresented.

It’s amazing to see how they’re actively working to bring our nations together through film. The festival’s purpose goes beyond the screen; it’s about fostering understanding, breaking down stereotypes, and building a community where people can see themselves represented in authentic, multidimensional ways.

The Movie

And meeting the La Liberación cast was like a dream. They’re not only insanely talented but so passionate about this mission too. We talked about the challenges and rewards of telling stories that dig deep into identity, heritage, and the immigrant experience. You could feel the love and dedication they have for their craft and for honoring our shared history and experiences.

Overall, this experience was a reminder of the power of film to unite people and create change. I feel so lucky to have been a part of this, and I can’t wait to see what’s next for both La Liberación and the GuadaLAjara Film Festival!
