Guadalupe’s CineFestival Features The Best In Latino Independent Films

By Jack Morgan, Texas Public Radio

CineFestival is based out of the Guadalupe Cultural Arts Center and began last week, running through Saturday.

“It’s been going for 36 years, so it’s the longest and original Latino film festival” said CineFestival Director Jim Mendiola. “First, it’s the only place in town you’ll see the latest and best independent Latino films and narratives and documentaries in one place. And it’s actually a place where you can actually meet the filmmakers because pretty much every major film that we show we bring the filmmakers in, so there’s a Q&A session afterwards.”

The festival screens about 35 films over its eight-day run, and Mendiola said they do so in a storied location.
