El Abuelo
Dir. Dino Dinco
(2008, 3 min., USA, English)
“El Abuelo” is an intimate portrait of
local educator and poet, Joe Jimenez. Of all domestic
chores, ironing is the only one a “homeboy”
is more than happy to master, reaching an appearance
of perfection; perfect creases work hand in hand with
the power of attraction. In voiceover, Joe reads the
lines from his poem “El Abuelo,” as we
learn the potency these perfect creases possess in
capturing the attention of his “first vato”
– his first love of another man.
Holy Water
Dir. Tatiana Lamela Rabell
(2009, 11 min., USA/Puerto Rice, Spanish w/ English
Subtitles)
Katerina is 15 and repressed, just like every other
girl in her Catholic private school. But unlike the
rest, she dares to try to figure out what to do with
her hormones, and they take her precisely where she
never thought she’d go...

the borders of transsexual identity and acceptance.
¿M, Nunca Sere Nadie?
Dir. Jeronimo de los Santos
(2009, 15 min., Spain, Spanish w/ English Subtitles)
Alex, an underground movie writer, homosexual and
in his thirties, is bored, the worst sin for somebody
taken as creative. His world is deleting itself and
the background is black. Casually, he reads a note
about the debut as director of an ex-friend. Some
people seemd to get some success, many others gave
up. But what about him? What has he done, why can't
he even look at himself at the mirror?
Almas Perdidas

Back to Life
Dir. Desi del Valle

Following the death of Trista’s girlfriend,
the comforting shoulder of straight gal-pal Monica

story of love between friends.

decided for them by currency..
