International Puerto Rican Heritage Film Festival

The 11th Annual International Puerto Rican Heritage Film Festival is back November 10–14 with films, shorts, animation, and panel discussions with industry thought leaders, aiming to create a collaborative environment for artists from all countries to explore issues inherent to the heritage of Puerto Rico, its diaspora, and explore stories relevant to the larger Latino community. It'll start at El Museo del Barrio’s El Teatro with the film We Still Here about the youth in Comerío, Puerto Rico, navigating the aftermath of Hurricane Maria. Immediately after, there will be a marquee presentation of Forget Me Not revealing a path to a more inclusive society that starts with diversity in the classroom. To highlight the evening, award-winning actress Sonia Manzano will receive the Humanitarian Award.
