Special thanks to our AGSM interns for

a success.

cinemaculturas.com • 1st ANNUAL CINEMA CULTURAS FILM FESTIVAL / INLAND EMPIRE

Letter from our Founder
Welcome to Cinema Culturas Film Fest–Inland
Empire. Our inaugural theme “All Stories Matter”
was inspired by the desire to highlight the collective
presence of the Hispanic diaspora in the United
States. To tell a story is always a wonderful challenge.
The story comes to life when it is collective and
stories begin to intertwine. This festival has come
to fruition with the convergence of united efforts
from academic institutions, government, enterprise,
and artistic minds to create a new space for
collaboration and dialogue between these many
groups. Tonight, we celebrate the inauguration of
the first Latin American film festival in the Inland
Empire, showcasing the best of contemporary
Mexican film and co-collaborations from around the
world. In this celebration of the creativity, talent,
and tenacity of Hispanics, as the Mexican essayist
Octavio Paz would say, “Society communes with itself
at the celebration,” shares with others, and sees its own reflection on the silver screen.
These stories are in Spanish which threads together the heterogeneous stories of Latin
American and Hispanic cultures. It is a true honor to have the General Consulate of
Mexico in Los Angeles, the Consulate of Mexico in San Bernardino, and UC Mexus be part
of this important event for the Hispanic community, especially the Mexican community.
Thank you for being here on this night of celebration and community,
Dr. Cony Martínez
Founder and General Director
Bienvenidos al Cinema Culturas Fim Fest Inland Empire. Nuestro tema inaugural, “Todas las
historias cuentan”, surge del deseo de manifestar una presencia colectiva de los individuos
que forman la llamada diáspora hispana en los Estados Unidos. En esta celebración de
la creatividad, el talento y el espíritu de tenacidad del hispano, como diría el ensayista
mexicano Octavio Paz, “la sociedad comulga consigo misma en la fiesta”, comparte con
otros y se ve reflejada en la pantalla grande. El contar una historia siempre es un reto
agradable y la historia se vuelve más dinámica y cobra vida cuando es colectiva y se van
entrelazando otras historias. La realización de este festival es la convergencia de esfuerzos
unidos, de instituciones académicas, gubernamentales, empresariales y artísticas para
crear un nuevo espacio de convivencia y diálogo. Esta noche celebramos la inauguración
del primer festival de cine latinoamericano en el Inland Empire, proyectando lo mejor
del cine mexicano contemporáneo y coproducciones con otros países. Y las historias en la
pantalla grande son en español, el hilo que teje todas las historias heterogéneas de las
culturas latinoamericanas e hispanas. Es un verdadero honor contar con la colaboraciόn
del Consulado General de México en Los Ángeles, Consulado de México en San Bernardino
y UC Mexus en este evento importante para la comunidad hispana, especialmente la
comunidad mexicana.
Gracias por su presencia en esta noche de celebración y convivio,
Dra. Cony Martínez
Fundadora y Directora General
