SUMMARY:Power of Our Stories: Building the American Dream  & Campesinos:  America’s Unsung Heroes
DESCRIPTION:2nd Annual Film Symposium\n2:00 pm Screening Building the American Dream\n3:30 pm Screening Campesinos: America’s Unsung Heroes\n4:00 pm Panel Discussion & Q&A to immediately follow with Chealse Hernandez\, Alex Ontiveros & shiloh burton \nNHCC | Bank of America Theatre \nFree community event \nAcross Texas\, an unstoppable construction boom drives urban sprawl and luxury high-rises. Its dirty secret: abuse of immigrant labor. BUILDING THE AMERICAN DREAM captures a turning point as a movement forms to fight widespread construction industry injustices. Grieving their son\, a Mexican family campaigns for a life-and-death safety ordinance. A Salvadorian electrician couple owed thousands in back pay fights for their children’s future. A bereaved son battles to protect others from his family’s preventable tragedy. A story of courage\, resilience\, and community\, the film reveals shocking truths about the hardworking immigrants who build the American Dream\, of which they are excluded. \nRun Time: 73  mins \nThe documentary\, Campesinos: America’s Unsung Heroes is a moving and vivid first-hand look at the struggles farm workers face on both a local and national level. It was filmed at several farms near Silicon Valley and shows how the gritty reality of farm workers is similar everywhere. No stone is left unturned as it makes sure to give insight into the life of farm workers\, who are often forgotten by the American Mainstream. Director Joe Poni and Producer Alex Ontiveros (Silicon Valley Latino)\, and Salvador Chavez are delighted with the enthusiastic reception that the documentary has received in film festivals and from audiences that have viewed it in private screenings. It has won 7 awards- including a Telly Award. Time and time again\, this documentary has proven to be eye-opening and a heartfelt tribute to the lives of agricultural workers everywhere. \nThe life of a farmworker is a rough life. Many risk it all to arrive in this nation. They have little contact with their families back in their country of origin. They work using only the bare minimum to support their families. The work they do doesn’t provide them with welfare or pandemic pay\, yet it serves as their only source of income. If a farm worker doesn’t work\, they don’t eat. Campesinos makes it clear that farm workers deal with many issues while living under the American Shadow. To make matters worse\, there is a stigma that farm workers are seen as criminals and as other negative caricatures that aren’t true to the reality of farm workers. Farm workers in California produce two-thirds of the nation’s fruits and nuts and over 90% of national production\, a point further elaborated on within the documentary. Agricultural workers aren’t recognized or respected for their back-breaking labor. Some are even disrespected and even seen as less of what they are. \nRun Time: 33 mins

SUMMARY:Power of Our Stories: Crow County: Our Right to Food Sovereignty\, Adios Amor\, & Mayors of Shiprock
DESCRIPTION:2nd Annual Film Symposium\n6:00 pm Doors\n6:30 pm Screening Crow Country: Our Right to Food Sovereignty\n7:00 pm Screening Adios Amor\n8:00 pm Screening The Mayors of Shiprock\n9:00 pm Panel Discussion & Q&A to immediately follow with Ramona Emerson\, Laurie Coyle\, Tsanavi Spoonhunter \nNHCC | Bank of America Theatre \nFree community event. \nCrow country: Our Right To Food Sovereignty is a 20-minute documentary that enlightens its audience to one tribe’s struggle to retain food security. The Crow Indian Reservation is the largest reservation in Montana\, encompassing 2.2 million acres of land. There are approximately 8\,000 Crow (Apsáalooke) tribal members who live there. In 2017\, the Crow Agency laid off 1\,000 of its 1\,300 employees due to federal government cutbacks\, ultimately straining tribal operations and leaving many families struggling to make ends meet. In 2019\, the only grocery store on the reservation burnt down\, and the owners are not planning to rebuild. For the Crow\, the federal and tribal governments are both failing its people. \nThe Crow Tribe— like most tribes— have been reliant on federal\, tribal and non profit food distribution centers. As a result\, tribal nations across the country are exploring the idea of ‘food sovereignty\,’ the inherent right of a community to identify its own food systems. Returning to traditional and nutritious foods has been shown to be an effective way to restore Native food systems and create employment. However\, restrictions on ancestral hunting grounds are preventing tribal members from providing for themselves and their families. CROW COUNTRY tells the stories of three Apsáalooke tribal members: a journalist; an elder; and a hunter\, as they try to address these issues\, and focuses on their resilience despite the hardships that they face. \nRun Time: 20 mins \nIn Adios Amor\, the discovery of lost photographs sparks the search for a hero that history forgot— Maria Moreno\, a migrant mother who sacrificed everything but her twelve kids in the passionate pursuit of justice for farmworkers. Years before Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta launched the United Farm Workers\, Maria picked up the only weapon she had—her voice—and became an outspoken leader in an era when women were relegated to the background. The first farm worker woman in America to be hired as a union organizer\, Maria’s story was silenced\, and her legacy buried—until now. \nRun Time: 58 mins \nThe Mayors of Shiprock: Every Monday in the small community of Shiprock\, New Mexico\, a group of young Navajo leaders meet to decide how they will help their community. For over seven years\, the Northern Dine Youth Committee has worked to give youth opportunities to directly make changes within their community. But while the NDYC works to make changes\, many members also consider their own futures\, commitments to family and the world outside of the Shiprock. While they love their community\, they all must consider their options both on and off the reservation. \nRun Time: 52 mins

SUMMARY:Power Of Our Stories: Lupe Under the Sun & Team Meryland
DESCRIPTION:2nd Annual Film Symposium \n12:30 pm: Doors open\n1:00pm: Screening- Lupe Under the Sun\n2:30 pm: Screening- Team Meryland\n3:15 pm: Panel Discussion and Q&A to immediately follow with Gabriel Gaurano and Rodrigo Reyes moderated by Deborah Blanche as Emma Tenayuca \nFree Community Event. \nLupe Under the Sun is a neorealist film following an aging migrant worker living in California\, who longs to return to Mexico before it is too late. Featuring a cast of nonprofessional actors\, real farmworkers and authentic locations\, Lupe Under the Sun tackles issues of depression\, homesickness and the immigrant myth of the American Dream. \nLong estranged from his family in Michoacán\, migrant laborer Lupe finds relief from the backbreaking work of harvesting peaches in California’s Central Valley through camaraderie and a quiet love affair with fellow immigrant Gloria. Soon the stability of his daily routine begins to crack under the weight of a life scarred with regret and missed opportunities. Filmed in a classic neorealist style\, director Rodrigo Reyes’s deeply moving debut fiction feature\, inspired by the life of his own grandfather\, is at once an intimately drawn meditation on life’s missed chances and a tale of the universal struggles of immigrants. Winner of Film Independent’s Canon Filmmaker Award\, Reyes’s unforgettable film heralds the arrival of an important new voice in American cinema. \nRun Time: 78 mins \nTeam Meryland by Gabriel Gaurano In the projects of Watts\, Meryland Gonzales\, a twelve-year-old female boxer trains to be crowned the 2019 Junior Olympics champion. Meanwhile\, her immigrant parents work tirelessly to give their child a shot at achieving her dream. Brought to you by PBS POV. \nRun Time: 27 mins \nEmma Tenayuca: La Pasionara De San Antonio Presented by Deborah Blanche \nBy the magic of imagination\, the ultimate time machine\, we will meet Miss Tenayuca today in 2024. In W1973 she was nominated to the Texas Women’s Hall of Fame but rejected as too radical. She will remember her days as a young activist and leader in the Workers’ Alliance\, will take us back to 1934-1939 when she was organizing picket lines for the Mexican women who worked as pecan shellers\, giving interviews to reporters\, speaking from the steps of City Hall\, and commenting on her so-called “commie” activities and subsequent arrests. Emma became the best-known labor organizer of San Antonio’s Spanish speaking community and was dubbed by newspapers “La pasionara” for her impassioned speaking style. Emma’s story resounds with topics of contemporary concern: Borderlands immigration; labor and economic justice; the right to dissent vs. mob and police violence; and biculturalism.

SUMMARY:Power of Our Stories: Unseen & Singing Our Way to Freedom
DESCRIPTION:2nd Annual Film Symposium\n4:30 pm Screening Unseen\n6:00 pm Dinner Break\n7:00 pm Screening Singing Our Way to Freedom\n8:30-9:30 pm Panel Discussion & Q&A to immediately follow with\nSet Hernandez & Paul Espinosa \nNHCC | Bank of America Theatre \nFree community event. \nMost people dream of a better future. Pedro\, an aspiring social worker\, is no different. But as a blind\, undocumented immigrant\, Pedro faces political restrictions to obtain his college degree\, secure a job in his field\, and support his family. As he finally graduates\, uncertainty looms over Pedro. What starts as a journey to provide mental health care for his community ultimately transforms into Pedro’s path towards his own healing. Through experimental cinematography and sound\, Unseen reimagines the accessibility of cinema\, while exploring the intersections of immigration\, disability\, and mental health. \nRun Time: 90 mins \nSinging Our Way To Freedom chronicles the life and music of Ramon “Chunky” Sanchez from his humble beginnings as a farmworker in Blythe\, California to the dramatic moment when he received one of his nation’s highest musical honors at the Library of Congress in Washington DC. As a young man in the 1970s\, Chunky joined the picket lines in California and became Cesar Chavez’s favorite musician. His journey is a remarkable lens on a time when young Mexican Americans became Chicanos. Chunky learned how to employ humor\, honesty and music to inspire folks to stand up and speak truth to power. His arc of transformation from marginalized farm kid to charismatic social activist shows how one person can mobilize people to change the world\, reminding us that the battle for freedom has to be fought anew by every generation. \nRun Time: 87 mins

SUMMARY:Cervantes Film Series: Relatos de la Resistencia: Los Bilbao
DESCRIPTION:12:00 pm MST (available for 96 hours)\nInstituto Cervantes Vimeo Channel Here: \nRelatos de la Resistencia: Buscando un lugar en el mundo \nThe young director Pedro Speroni debuted in feature-length documentaries with Rancho (2021)\, where he already demonstrated his sensitivity in approaching the very delicate reality of people who are incarcerated. The personal relationship he established with Iván\, a prison inmate\, in that first film allowed the filmmaker to accompany him on his life journey after leaving prison and reuniting with his family and his life. Currently\, director Pedro Speroni is working on Talía\, a woman he has also accompanied in his life inside and outside the penitentiary\, with which he will finish his trilogy on the world of the prison. \nSynopsis: Iván Bilbao returns home\, to the city of Chascomús (Argentina)\, after having spent five years in prison. His wife\, Yamila\, and his little daughter\, Luz\, are waiting for him. Pedro Speroni’s camera infiltrates this family trying to return to normality\, almost as if it were an invisible character\, and shows that the return is anything but easy. \nScreening: Los Bilbao | Director/s: Pedro Speroni | Year: 2022 | Format: Digital | Running time: Largometraje – 74 min | Genre: Documental | Country: Argentina | Original version: español | Subtitles: inglés\, francés\, portugués (de Brasil)\, italiano\, español | Rated: SC \n \nRelatos de la Resistencia: Buscando un lugar en el mundo\, the strength of documentary filmmaking in Spain is a phenomenon with three decades of history. The work of the monographic festivals has been crucial to maintain its strength and validity among the public interested in the new expressive forms of cinema\, but also among those who seek in the documentary to know the perspective and experiences of others\, often very distant spatially\, temporally\, and culturally. \nIn collaboration with the DocsBarcelona festival\, this online film series that stars the month of April on our Vimeo channel brings together four documentaries that allow us to meet people whose lives are marked by adventure\, and not always in its most positive interpretation. In addition\, the direction of these works tells us about the place from where we elaborate the stories of loss\, but also those of survival and overcoming. \nPROGRAM\nApril 5: La Chana (2017)\, by Lucija Stojevic\nApril 12: Los Bilbao (2022)\, by Pedro Speroni\nApril 19: Light Falls Vertical (2022)\, by Efthymia Zymvragaki\nApril 26: Querida Sara (2021)\, by Patricia Franquesa

SUMMARY:Opera Southwest: Beyond Carmen
DESCRIPTION:An Evening with Audrey Babcock and Andrés Vadin\n3:00 pm \nNHCC | Bank of America Theatre \nOpera Southwest and the National Hispanic Cultural Center present an homage to Bizet’s Carmen. Mezzo-soprano Audrey Babcock weaves legends of the Old World into a 21st-century musical tapestry that spans generations and genres—from classical to flamenco to tango\, medieval to modern. Featuring guitarist Andrés Vadin. \n$35 with discounts for students and Opera for All with a WIC or EBT card. \n \n“Carmen. There is no more iconic woman in Operatic history. She is so singled out that her image has become mainstream and is synonymous with the Femme Fatale. There is no image\, no legend\, no creature\, more riddled with weaponized femininity then my beloved\, Carmencita. Carmen’s origin story is rich—it has been written that the author of the original novella\, Prosper Mérimée\, derived his inspiration for this illusory gypsy from a real-life Sephardic Jew. Though Jews were exotic at the time\, Gypsies had a more solid reputation for nefariousness and made a more daring choice for his Parisian newspaper-reading audience. With ‘Beyond Carmen’ we will explore her Sephardic roots\, singing in Ladino or “Judeo Spanish”\, similar to ancient Castilian Spanish. We will play with the rhythms\, textures\, and accents of the marginalized people of the diaspora\, and most of all we will sing and cry out for the misunderstood experience of being fiercely female in a time that saw a woman’s strength as something dangerous\, dark\, and destined for annihilation.” – Audrey Babcock \n$35 with discounts for students and Opera for All with a WIC or EBT card. \nFor more information about Opera Southwest\, please\, visit their website here: www.operasouthwest.org

SUMMARY:Cervantes Film Series: Relatos de la Resistencia: Light Falls Vertical
DESCRIPTION:12:00 pm MST (available for 96 hours)\nInstituto Cervantes Vimeo Channel Here: \nRelatos de la Resistencia: Buscando un lugar en el mundo \nEfthymia Zymvragaki receives a proposal from a man who confesses to abuse in order to investigate the vision of the perpetrator of violence. With the courage to tell a story in the first person\, the debut feature of this Greek director addresses the issue of violence that weighs so heavily in today’s society with the intention of approaching it in a complex and intimate way. \nSynopsis: A man named Ernesto\, a resident of the Canary Islands\, contacts filmmaker Efthymia Zymvragaki to propose making a film about his life. He explains to her that in gender violence there are always two sides: the victim and the aggressor. He confesses to being the aggressor. The Greek director then embarks on a journey\, real and cinematic\, in which she discovers the hidden corners\, the lights and shadows of a character trapped in the cycle of violence\, and in the process realizes that Ernesto is\, in reality\, half criminal and half victim\, and that his story pushes her to confront her own family history\, which she left in her native country two decades ago. \nScreening: Light Falls Vertical | Director/s: Efthymia Zymvragaki | Year: 2022 | Format: Digital | Running time: Largometraje – 85 min | Genre: Documental | Country: España\, Alemania\, Italia y Países Bajos | Original version: español | Subtitles: inglés\, francés\, portugués (de Brasil)\, italiano\, español | Rated: +12 \n \nRelatos de la Resistencia: Buscando un lugar en el mundo\, the strength of documentary filmmaking in Spain is a phenomenon with three decades of history. The work of the monographic festivals has been crucial to maintain its strength and validity among the public interested in the new expressive forms of cinema\, but also among those who seek in the documentary to know the perspective and experiences of others\, often very distant spatially\, temporally\, and culturally. \nIn collaboration with the DocsBarcelona festival\, this online film series that stars the month of April on our Vimeo channel brings together four documentaries that allow us to meet people whose lives are marked by adventure\, and not always in its most positive interpretation. In addition\, the direction of these works tells us about the place from where we elaborate the stories of loss\, but also those of survival and overcoming. \nPROGRAM\nApril 5: La Chana (2017)\, by Lucija Stojevic\nApril 12: Los Bilbao (2022)\, by Pedro Speroni\nApril 19: Light Falls Vertical (2022)\, by Efthymia Zymvragaki\nApril 26: Querida Sara (2021)\, by Patricia Franquesa

SUMMARY:Festival Ballet Albuquerque: Billy the Kid & Other Tall Tales
DESCRIPTION:7:00 pm Friday\n2:00 pm & 7:00 pm Saturday \nBilly the Kid\, Blue Jean Blues\, Southwest FolkTails\, & Giselle\nFestival Ballet Albuquerque presents an original production of Billy the Kid\, a ballet telling the story of Billy from childhood until his death at age 22\, true to historical accuracy as anyone knows. The ballet has an ensemble of cowboys\, townspeople\, dance hall girls\, and the important people in Billy’s life\, including his beloved Mother\, John Tunstall\, J.J. Dolan\, love interest Maria\, and of course\, Sheriff Pat Garrett. \n \nThe evening begins with the music of the Mystic Vic Blues Band playing live onstage with the FBA professional dancers in Blue Jean Blues choreographed by Patricia Dickinson Wells. A new children’s ballet\, Southwest FolkTails is based on families of New Mexican “critters” sporting tails with character costumes expertly designed and constructed by master craftsman\, Joe Moncada. Imagine hummingbirds\, quails\, coyotes\, snakes\, and roosters! \nThe evening ends with the classical 18th century ballet\, Giselle (in One Act) complete with village scenes\, beautiful costumes\, and scenery. The epic ballet premiered in 1841\, but most of the versions today are based on the revivals by choreographer Marius Petipa in the early 20th century.  Set to music by composer Adolphe Adam\, the epic story follows the tragically short life of Giselle through love\, heartache\, death\, and the after-death where she is summoned from her grave by the vengeful\, deadly sisterhood of the Willis who are unmarried women who died after being betrayed by their lover. Giselle’s great love for her betrayer\, Albrecht\, saves him from sure death by the Willis\, and thus saves herself from becoming one of them. \nCome ½ hour early before showtime and enjoy a pre-concert performance by Mystic Vic Blues Band! \n$14\, $20\, $29\, $39 & $49 w/ a $2 discount for seniors and children 10 years old and younger \nRun Time: 2 hours \n*The event is a rental event not an NHCC production.

SUMMARY:Film: The Human Zoo (Calafate\, zoológicos humanos)
DESCRIPTION:5:00 pm Reception & Cash Bar\n6:00 pm Doors\n6:30 pm Director’s talk\n7:00 pm Screening\nPanel Discussion & Q&A to immediately follow \nNHCC | Bank of America Theatre \nToward the end of the 19th century\, 25 people from four different Chilean indigenous groups were kidnapped from Tierra del Fuego and Patagonia by a German businessman and taken to Europe to be exhibited as attractions in cities throughout the continent. THE HUMAN ZOO uncovers the history of this colonial spectacle\, and follows the fallout into the present. \nWith Chilean historian Christian Baez\, director Hans Mülchi Bremer contacts these native people’s descendants\, and traces their voyage from South America across Europe\, paying particular attention to the fate of Calafate\, a Selk’nam boy who was taken when he was just 9 years old\, and survived to return to his native land. \nOthers were not so lucky. The filmmakers discover a collection of skeletons of five Kawesqar people in the archives of the Anthropology Department at the University of Zurich\, and with help from the Swiss researchers\, begin the process of repatriation to Chile. \nTheir efforts—and those of the Kawesqar descendants—reveal not only the persisting legacy of colonial oppression\, but also the fissures that still separate indigenous Chilean communities from their national government. \nProgram generously supported by UNM Latin American and Iberian Institute\, FIU Kimberly Green Latin American and Caribbean Center\, Guadalupe Institute Western Hemisphere Center\, New Mexico Humanities Now!\, & Student Organization for Latin American Studies (SOLAS) \nThe Human Zoo (original title: Calafate\, zoológicos humanos) | A film by Han Mülchi Bremer | 93 minutes/ color | English; Spanish/ English subtitles | Release: 2013 | Copyright: 2011 | https://icarusfilms.com/if-zoo | Run Time: 93 mins \nFree community event

SUMMARY:Cervantes Film Series: Relatos de la Resistencia: Querida Sara
DESCRIPTION:12:00 pm MST (available for 96 hours)\nInstituto Cervantes Vimeo Channel Here: \nRelatos de la Resistencia: Buscando un lugar en el mundo \nThe relationship between Patricia Franquesa\, the director of this documentary\, and Sara\, the first cab driver in Afghanistan\, is proposed to us as a story of friendship whose thread is united by the gaze in front of the camera\, where we stand as spectators\, but to which the protagonist of the documentary constantly speaks. \nAll the material filmed in front of this strong and confident woman\, who is aware of being filmed and in the story\, is offered to us as a tribute that acquires greater impact when we learn about the political and social evolution that took place and continues to take place in Afghanistan. \nSynopsis: This is a moving portrait of Sara\, the first woman cab driver in Afghanistan. Spanish filmmaker Patricia Franquesa captures the strength of a powerful woman who breaks through the barriers of a society marked by patriarchy. Sara has bright eyes\, tireless in defending women’s rights and fighting to achieve what seemed impossible. It is an inspiring story of friendship between two women full of life\, a hymn to empathy and dialogue between cultures: the circular tale of Sara’s life story turns from fear to love and from love to fear: a testimony of a reality that no longer exist. \nScreening: Querida Sara | Director/s: Patricia Franquesa | Year: 2021 | Format: Digital | Running time: Largometraje – 60 min | Genre: Documental | Country: España\, Serbia y Noruega | Original version: farsi\, uzbeko e inglés | Subtitles: inglés\, francés\, portugués\, italiano\, español | Rated: SC \n \nRelatos de la Resistencia: Buscando un lugar en el mundo\, the strength of documentary filmmaking in Spain is a phenomenon with three decades of history.

The controversial themes of rebellion\, immorality\, and the tragic death of the main character shocked French audiences when it was initially performed.

Despite Don Jose’s efforts to resist her charms\, he succumbs to Carmen’s enchantment\, resulting in his downfall and Carmen’s demise. \n$22\, $42\, $63\, $85\, $105 with discounts for groups of 8 or more\, anyone 30 years old and younger and Opera for All with a WIC or EBT card. \n \nThe presentation of Carmen will be in Spanish.
