Hey New Yorkers,

A redux version of my film “Mexico: Chasing the American Dream” is being shown at the New Filmmakers Latino Anthology Screening tomorrow night (wednesday May 7) at 6pm, at 32 Second Avenue @ 2nd Street (at a theater called Anthology Film Archives). See below.

I’d love to see all your faces and reconnect… and I’m still hunting for a one night stay on a couch

Much love,
Isabelle

Update: have scored a place to stay. Thanks for the offers!
