MANY DIRECTORS & ACTORS IN PERSON! FILMS & SHOWTIMES >>

Spanning 11 countries from Cuba to Chile, this year's edition of Latinbeat features U.S. and East Coast premieres by up-and-coming as well as established filmmakers. See your favorite actors in romantic comedies, edge-of-your-seat thrillers, thoughtful dramas as well as eye-catching animations and documentary that flirts with fiction.

Don't miss two special screenings with live musical accompaniment: The Stoessel Expedition, a 1928 film of a remarkable journey in car from Buenos Aires to New York and Mojica Marin’s cult horror classic This Night I Will Possess Your Corpse.

On Sunday, August 14 at 11am, there will be a special Panel Presentation: Central American and Caribbean Cinema Today, co-presented with Casa Clementina and Cinema Tropical and sponsored by New York Women in Film and Television. Latinbeat filmmakers will discuss innovative and hybrid forms of film production in the region. Admission to the panel is free with the purchase of a ticket to any screening in Latinbeat.
