NewFilmmakers Los Angeles and Film Academy Go Virtual With Latinx Festival
The Hollywood Reporter — NewFilmmakers Los Angeles (NFMLA) and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences are teaming to co-host a virtual edition of the annual NFMLA Film Festival InFocus: Latinx and Hispanic Cinema Festival. Scheduled for Sept. 25-26 and powered by crowdfunding platform Seed&Spark, the line-up consists of two shorts programs and a presentation of Varda Bar-Kar’s feature documentary Fandango at the Wall.
“This year’s slate contains a lot of powerful common themes around the powers of family, community, symbolism and imagination as ways of both coping with and understanding the world,” said NFMLA programming director Bojana Sandic.
