SUMMARY:CINE CON CORAZÓN SHORTS SPOTLIGHT
DESCRIPTION:ARRAY brings Mexican Mother’s Day to our Creative Campus with a curated selection of provocative films showcased as part of “Cine Con Corazon: Cinema Celebrating Mothers.” Our 3PM showtime features: \nCHICANA (1979) shown with A CRUSHING LOVE (2009) | Directed by Sylvia Morales \nCHICANA traces the history of Chicana and Mexican women from pre-Columbian times to the present. It covers women’s role in Aztec society\, their participation in the 1810 struggle for Mexican independence\, their involvement in U.S. labor strikes in 1872\, their contributions to the 1910 Mexican revolution and their leadership in contemporary civil rights causes. Using murals\, engravings and historical footage\, CHICANA shows how women\, despite their poverty\, have become an active and vocal part of the political and work life in both Mexico and the United States. \nA CRUSHING LOVE\, Sylvia Morales’ sequel to her groundbreaking history of Chicana women\, CHICANA (1979)\, honors the achievements of five activist Latinas—labor organizer and farm worker leader Dolores Huerta\, author and educator Elizabeth “Betita” Martinez\, writer/playwright/educator Cherrie Moraga\, civil rights advocate Alicia Escalante\, and historian/writer Martha Cotera—and considers how these single mothers managed to be parents and effect broad-based social change at the same time. \nPlease note: Other showtimes in the day’s program require a separate ticketed entry. Guests must RSVP and possess a ticket for each screening time to attend each of the screenings. \nABOUT THE FILMMAKER\nSylvia Morales has directed\, written\, produced and edited award-winning and nationally recognized film and video work for over 30 years.
