Charming award winning Boricua, can currently be see in a festival favorite, ' which tells the story of, a hot-blooded, ambitious young hustler who buys a small apartment building in the Bronx and moves his boisterous Latino family into the complex to live rent-free. Tension builds as he imposes his views on everyone around him, including his fiancee , while hiding the fact that his corner store is a front for selling marijuana. Talks to LatinoBuzz about upbringing and his skyrocketing career so far. LatinoBuzz: What was the moment you decided you wanted to be an artist? E.J: For a long time I didn't know what I wanted or what I loved to do. Friends had that blessing and I remember thinking when I would have my turn. Then, in 9th Grade I sort of fell into playing Danny Zuko randomly in that years Grease themed portion of the dance show.
The moment I hit the stage I think something in me knew. Even in rehearsals. I'd fallen in Love. LatinoBuzz: Did you grow up in a household of artists? E.J.: For a while I felt like I spoke a different language than my immediate family. It wasn't until my teens that I met and got to know better members of my extended family (my cousin Alma in particular) that self- identified as artists.
Something in us clicked together; in the way we thought, in the language we chose to use, in what we enjoyed. She helped me see and appreciate a lot both about myself and my loved ones. And when I look back I recognize now that I indeed do come from a large family of artists.
Whether they necessarily realize it or not. LatinoBuzz: Were you aware of 'House' writer Joseph B.
Vasquez' work or his life when you got involved with? And what did you think? Please, tell me you have seen Vasquez' 'Hanging With The Homeboys'! E.J.: I was not aware of Joe before this movie but 'Jack' has certainly allowed me an education and an opportunity.
Hanging With The Homeboys was one of my first homework assignments by, our director. I welcomed it. We could say was before his time but really I just think he was a real artist and Real art stand the test of time. 'The Homeboys' is no different. Even with the theatricality of cinema at the time, Joe made it feel intentional.
Painting a portrait of our time in the 90's within urban New York with colorful and lavish brush strokes. It was a powerful film. LatinoBuzz: What drew you to the role of 'Jack'?
Could you relate to the core of the character? E.J.: To me, 'Jack' is an ode to the males in my family. And with that special 'hint' of machismo, to say the least. I loved having the opportunity to play him.
This film is in honor of my mother and those males in my family, specifically my brother Ivan from whom I borrowed most of Jacks mannerisms. LatinoBuzz: How does working with (House), Cruz (Drown) and Nick , Joshua (Four) differ from one another? (btw I recommend you for!) and did you have to adjust your approach as an actor? E.J.: First of all, thank you for the recommendation. And yes honestly, they are all very different directors. Some are more specific, some are calmer than others when the pressure is on, some use more colorful language and they all communicate differently. But they all have love and care in common.
They are all artists. And they have voices that I believe shine through within their films. To add to that, as a director myself I have learned so much from all three. I would like to thank them for that. LatinoBuzz: Ok, Ideal role: What's the story, who is the director and who is your co-star? Always one of the hardest questions to answer.
I don't know. I love telling truthful honest stories.
I suppose I'd love the opportunity to be a superhero within a realistic dramatic piece. It would have opportunity for humor too of course. And ideally I would be the writer/director?
(Though I suppose if I was, it is Possible I would give myself a meaty but smaller part so I could focus on the latter of my duties. Annnnnnnd my co-star would be. One of my actual best friends. I am blessed to have so many beautiful talented people around me, I would like them all in my film please!!! LatinoBuzz: What is next for you?
E.J.: I'm working on creating a sitcom with some of those best friends as we speak. We recently just shot our pitch video.
You can follow us on our endeavor on Instagram @TheGatosNegros. Also my writing partner and I are in the midst of finalizing a final draft of our latest short film, 'The Normally.' We should be shooting sometime in December under the production company we're creating, Almost Dark, prod. In addition, if you guys are looking for amazing music from a brand new indie artist, I just copped 'Life Happens: The BiPolar Symptoms' by Naiqui on iTunes. Seriously one of the greatest pieces of art I've ever heard. It is genius.
I'm looking to see if I can have him score my next piece. Nfs mw download. LatinoBuzz is a feature on SydneysBuzz that highlights Latino indie talent and upcoming trends in Latino film with the specific objective of presenting a broad range of Latino voices. Follow AtLatinoBuzz on Twitter and Facebook ». 01 May 2013. by Christine Davila. The summertime, downtown set, glitzy yet ‘cashz’ La Film Festival, presented by Film Independent has announced their film lineup today. The verdict on the Latino rep?
Compared to the last three festivals I’ve examined this year, Sundance, SXSW and Tribeca, La Film Festival comes through with arguably the most valuable representation; there are three films representing American Latino in the narrative competition and one in documentary competition. The lineup consists of a handful of new American indies mixed in with many favorited international films from last year’s Toronto, Venice, London and Berlin film festivals, and seven Sundance films screening out of competition including ’s, which won both the Audience and Jury Awards in Park City. Starring Boricua as Oakland police murder victim Oscar ’s girlfriend, will be given the gala treatment (like last year’s Sundance awarded, Black film, ), alongside the direct-from-Cannes, the reteaming of director Refyn and GQ sensitive alpha hero. But I’m not here to comb and recycle through the ‘high profile’ films that come armed with buzz. As always I’m spotlighting U.S.
Films in which the writer/director/cast are native born whose ethnic/cultural roots originates from Mexico, Central or South America. In addition, films by filmmakers who may not be Latino, but whose narratives explore and relate to the relevant bi-cultural experience/subjects. And finally I also like to mention the Latin films (international). While I’m happy to acknowledge and give it up for La, it’s still painful for this blogger/programmer to know there are so many more fresh American Latino films out there ready to be discovered. Game-changing films offering such fresh and original perspectives, which have by and large been dismissed by most of the major Us Film Festivals. With the futures of the two highest profile Latino niche festivals in limbo, The Los Angeles Latino International Film Festival and HBO’s NY International Latino Film Festival, it’s especially crushing to know that these films might also be robbed of their only community platform. It’s cause for alarm and high time to address this void.

But wait, lets save that for another post. For now, lets get back to the Latino stories coming at you at this year’s La Film Festival. For official synopsis and pics check the Film Guide here. Narrative Competition – Notably 9 of the 12 are Us, hopefully giving the scrappy indies a better chance to compete and win the cash prize against the healthy subsidized production value of foreign movies.
Five are first features and only one female narrative director. 40 Years From Yesterday written and directed by and This is the first feature from the writing/directing team who got a lot of attention with their 2010 short Charlie and The Rabbit. Ojeda-Beck (whose parents are from Peru) and Machoian who is from the heavily Mexican populated King City, met at Cal State, Monterey Bay where they forged a tight artistic collaboration. Forty Years from Yesterday is described as Machoian’s imagination of how his mother’s death would unfold for his own family, capturing the loss his siblings would feel in losing a parent and his father’s pain in facing the death of his partner. The duo have their way with documentary, fiction and experimental form, instilling an aura of temporality in an anchored realism.
This unique evocative alchemy is found in Machoian’s doc short, Movies Made from Home #16, a 4 minute existential moment which screened at Sundance this year. The cosmic life themes they tend to broach are treated in such a down to earth and sensitive way, which is further made relatable by the natural non-pro performances they employ. Robert’s father, has starred in a few of his films and in Forty Years from Yesterday, both Robert’s parents and siblings play themselves. See this endearing behind the scenes clip of the making of the film: written by and directed by Written by the late (d 1995) whose 1991 movie, Hanging with the Homeboys, was a groundbreaking urban comedy when it came out, now very much a classic albeit sadly forgotten gem. The only one of Vasquez’s five movies that was distributed (by New Line), Hanging with the Homeboys was shot in the South Bronx where he was born and raised. About four homeys, two Puerto Rican (one of them played by a baby-faced Johnny Leguizamo) and two Black, the movie, available on dvd from Amazon (or, I found it in 6 parts on Youtube) screened at the Sundance Film Festival at its indie darling peak. Its good-natured humor is derived from neighborhood beefs, trying to rap to ladies, and the racial tensions of the day delivered with unapologetic commentary.
Griselda S Cuban Quinceanera Dress
An overall glimpse into a day in the barrio slice life, the film is clearly an early influence for the Friday series. The House that Jack Built similarly has that raw and authentic Nuyorican energy but pushed into a rollercoaster of a dysfunctional family drama with warmth, affection and intensity.
The director, born from Cuban parents and raised in Washington Heights, is also an alumni of Sundance (Somebody 2001). The film stars as the hot-blooded self-imposed king of his family who buys an apartment building to keep his family close, only to start dictating everybody’s life since he’s letting them live rent free.
Bonilla is a fiercely charismatic up and coming actor who was last at the festival with the film in 2011 and was also in Don’t Let Me Drown (Sundance 2010). An uproarious and high-edged Harlem set chamber piece, the heavy conflict of gravity that besets Jack is from being pulled in opposite directions by his street values on one side and deeply rooted family values on the other. See the trailer on their Kickstarter page. My Sister’S Quinceanera written and directed by This was reportedly one of the most talked about American films in the experimental leaning Rotterdam Film Festival this year.
The filmmaker who was born and raised in Iowa, has an impressive academic pedigree having attended world prestigious universities, Oxford and Yale. His first feature, the small town, gay life set, Bumblefuck, USA screened at Outfest 2011. In My Sister’s Quinceanera, he uses the local Mexican-American Iowa residents as his non-pro actors with whom he collaborated with on the story. It’s a gentle and earnest portrayal of a young man named Silas who is convinced he has to leave town to become independent and start his life but must first see his sister’s Quinceanera take place.
Workers written and directed by (Mexico/Germany) - A quietly simmering artful drama about a retiring factory worker and housemaid in Tijuana circumstantially reunited and trying to compensate for their spent lives. An accomplished and arresting feature debut, the film premiered at the Berlin Film Festival’s Panorama section and won Best Mexican Film at the Guadalajara film Festival. A full investment into the contemplative tone and rhythm yields an appreciation for the film’s visceral and dry humor undertones. Born in El Salvador, previously made a documentary short called Milagro del. Documentary Competition: 7 out 10 are Us, 4 first features, six female directors (incl.
2 co-directors) directed by The 5 time world boxing champion and emotionally damaged blue-eyed Chicano from the 505, survived a series of near deaths before his turbulent life ended at the young age of 45 last year. The sheer volume of tragedy and coping afflictions Johnny endured in his Vida Loca, as he openly shares in his autobiography, includes the scarring experience of seeing his mother’s kidnapping and violent murder at the tender age of eight. Funneled his heartbreaking life to fuel a successful professional boxing career. ’s confrontation to such tumult is so impressive, it’s no wonder that former EA video game designer decided to both dramatize and document his harrowing real life story. Originally announced as a biopic, subsequently the documentary was born of it, in which Eddie captures final interviews and archival footage with the haunted boxer. Remarkably, watching the clip below, a slight zeal and spirit, however low key and worn, emanates from the towering rumble of his battered lifetime – unquestionably his refusal to be knocked out. This is actually the first feature out of the gate for filmmaker whose radical sci-fi film 0000 has been curiously tracked as in production for a couple years now.
The ambitious looking trailer only piqued mad interest when it was released last year. Purgatorio directed by (Mexico) - An elegiac and cinematically shot poem filled with emotional narration and iconography, this border film is told by way of a tapestry of stories that culminates into a strong cry for human compassion. Imagining the border as if purgatory, where migrants must suffer in order to get through to the other side, the dangerous plight in crossing the Us/Mexico border is viewed outside political context but rather a metaphysical prism. This is the fourth film from Reyes, a talented young documentarian from Mexico.
International Showcase directed by Sebastian Cordero and written by - From award winning Ecuador born filmmaker Sebastian Cordero (Rabia, Cronicas, Pescador) marks his first film in English. Somewhat shrouded in mystery, the story is written by, an adult comic book author, and is set aboard the first manned mission to Jupiter’s moon. The genre bending sounding sci-fi thriller was recently picked up by Magnolia’s Magnet division and will go straight to VOD on June 27 after its La Film Festival premiere. Cordero, who is a UCLA grad, has a well-controlled gritty realism to his aesthetic, which might inhabit and distinguish this deep space thriller among the genre’s canon. Written and directed by (Chile) - From the crafty young Chilean filmmaker whose first first film, put him on the international map, this is one of two films he screened at Sundance this year. A road trip of self-discovery featuring the charming free spirited pitted against a smarmy American tourist in the long and vast Chilean coast side, the film explores their unusual and fluid character dynamic and opposing auras.
The Women And The Passenger directed by Valentina Mac-Pherson, Patricia Correra (Chile) - A 45 minute version of this screened at the prestigious documentary film festival in Amsterdam Idfa. An unobtrusive camera follows four maids as they clean the rooms of one of those clandestine by-the-hour motels. Amid the moans behind doors and bed aftermaths of torrid love affairs, the women reveal their own perspectives about life, love and sex in some kind of visual love letter to the special place. I don’t believe the title is translated to interpret its full meaning, its more like, “The Transients’ women”.
Griselda S Cuban Quinceaneras
I Was Born In Mexico But. Written and directed by Corey OHama - 12min (Us) - Per the IMDb description, “using found footage to tell the story of an undocumented young woman who grew up thinking she was American, only to find out as a teenager that she didn’t have papers because she was brought to the U.S. Please release a version of netgear genie for mac computer.

I have no doubt this will share that similar strange, whimsical vibe.

Papel Picado – written and directed by Javier Barboza - From a 2007 Cal Arts Alumnus, and independent animation teacher and filmmaker, this looks wild! Check out his vimeo works here.
Saint John, The Longest Night, written and directed by (Chile) 18 min - The filmmaker is of the indigenous Mapuche tribe of Southern Chile. Set amid the happy Saints celebration of June 24, a young boy must wrestle with the reappearance of his violent father.
Too Much Water written and directed by, (Uruguay) 14 min - A young woman fills her backyard pool every night and finds it empty in the morning. Strange neighbors and even stranger circumstances stir her paranoia.
Lastly, I have to mention dance beat rapper ’s feature film acting debut in directed by (Rock the Bells doc about Wu Tang Clan) and written. Essentially, the film is about a group of friends hanging out when some kind of apocalypse hits.
Hijinks ensue. (There’s a trend here after It’s A Disaster and the upcoming “look-we’re-so-cool-celebs partying of ). Although it’s a small role, it is the first of a number of films is in that are coming through the pipelines.
Born in Cleveland Ohio, he is a beautiful brown blend of African American on his mother’s side and Native/Mexican mix on his father’s side. The La Film Festival kicks off with ’s, I’m So Excited on June 13 and runs until the 23. Tickets and info here. ». 06 June 2012.
by Juan Caceres. A native of Houston, Tejas graduated from Columbia University’s Mfa Film Program with several internationally screened short films under his belt along with the Young Producer’s Development Award. His feature debut, Four, based on a play written by, participated in the Tribeca program at the Tribeca Film Festival and after a few false starts and delays, Joshua cast (', '), (', TV's '), (') and (', ') as his 'Four'.
Once in the can he was able to complete the post production when he became the recipient of the Jerome Foundation’s Film and Video grant. Adding his favorite New York bands to the soundtrack as icing on the cake, Joshua is ready to world premiere the film at the Los Angeles Film Festival on June 15th. LatinoBuzz: Four is based on a play by - What drew you to adapting it for the screen and how much did race factor in your desire to tell this story? Was there ever an urge to stray from the original story?: I saw one of ' other plays called Where Do We Live at the Vineyard Theatre in New York in 2004, right around the time I finished film school. The play had such a fresh voice that spoke to me, so I sought out Shinn's other work. Of all of his plays up to that time, Four really floored me mostly because it felt like experiences that I had in my adolescence, growing up as a closeted gay Mexican-American kid in a conservative suburb in Houston, Texas. The play also felt very cinematic and contained in that it takes place over one night and sort of roves around the city.
It really could be any American city, which is how we shot it, although the play takes place in Hartford. I could see and feel the story so clearly right after I read, which is a good sign if you're thinking about whether a play could make a good movie. I definitely appreciate the way race was dealt with in the play and it made me want to do the film more, although I probably initially responded more to the gay aspect of it.
I'm Mexican-American and grew up in Texas but I don't speak Spanish, regrettably because I think it was sort of frowned upon in my generation of trying to assimilate into being an American. I think that sad aspect of my upbringing helped me deal with the race aspect of Four because I think that the story is so unconventional in its dealing with the race of the characters. Race in my life was never a 'normal' thing to deal with and I think the way it plays into the characters lives in Four is very complex as well. This version of Four does stray away from the original story to some degree, which I think you'll pick up on if you read the play and see the movie.
But I think the initial core of the characters and their arc in the story remains true to what Shinn wrote. We tried to make this as much of a cinematic experience as possible. But this is my interpretation of this story. I'm sure there will be others in the future. LatinoBuzz: From your '04 short film Kill or Be Killed to your feature film Four - you've shown characters who are searching for something to fill an emotional void. What's looking for?: When I first stared to watch movies seriously as an adolescent, I wanted them to echo back to me what I felt inside.I think a lot of where Kill or Be Killed and Four were coming from for me personally was the loneliness and isolation I felt as a kid trying to make sense of the intense dysfunction of my family life and the fact that my sexuality made me very different from what was in any way desirable to the people around me as a child.
A lot of time has passed between the time I directed Kill or Be Killed and now. A lot of that time for me creatively was spent trying to get Four off the ground. I've gone through a lot of changes as a person in that period. I would say at this point in my life, I value the people that I'm close to.
I have wonderful friends and a wonderful partner that I'm so blessed to have in my life. My main priority in life is to practice trying to love them and to love myself every day and to balance that with trying to make work that is meaningful and fulfilling to me. I think film can be a really powerful vehicle to share and be witness to the experiences that we go through in our daily lives. Film really helped me when I was a kid and had nobody to turn to.
I know they work that way for others and I feel a certain responsibility to myself and to any audience that watches my work to be as honest as possible. And I still have a lot to learn as well.
This is my first feature film, so I'm looking forward to pushing the boundaries of what I've learned and what I'm capable of in this medium. LatinoBuzz: Is there a songwriter you've admired that had they gone that route would have made amazing filmmakers?
(and why?):I would like to have seen what would have done with film. He was such a clever lyricist and inventive musician. I actually taught myself how to play guitar from listening to Either/Or and his self-titled album.
'Needle in the Hay' was the first song I learned. He's a weird player to learn from because his tunings are so off and he used a lot of strange variations and chord progressions that are really not normal, but it really opens up your mind to what is capable on a guitar. I learned the basic chords of guitar with my guitar tuned a step down because that's how a lot of his songs are tuned. I didn't know it for a long time that it wasn't the standard tuning. He had such an evolved sense of imagery and metaphor. When I hear 'Say Yes' I can almost see the movie in my head. LatinoBuzz: Do Latino filmmakers have a responsibility on the images we convey to the broader audience?
Or should we have the freedom as artists?: I think it's more important to maintain authenticity and honesty than it is to portray a certain PC image of what it means to be Latino. I've always felt somewhat out of place as a Latino since I don't speak Spanish very well and I'm fairly light skinned. I was essentially a shy skateboard, punk rock, lower middle class kid from the suburbs and that is really my perspective and where I come from. I appreciate it when I see work that challenges me to look at the world through different eyes.
It's more important that Latinos feel free to express their own individual realities, rather than an accepted version of Latinoness. LatinoBuzz: Which of the following villians best describes you as a director on set?? Dick Dastardly? The Guy from Caligula? Or Han from '?: Probably if I had to pick one. He was a mystic.
LatinoBuzz: You've written short stories too as well as short films - Where do you draw your stories from?: The stories I write are usually somewhat autobiographical, or contain aspects of my observations and experiences. I started writing short stories in the middle of making Four actually, which took almost six years.
Partially, I wrote these because I wanted to practice storytelling and keep my mind sharp in this realm. But in general, I love to write them because they are very low pressure to me. It's really fun to keep my mind working as a writer and to be able to practice turning my observations into story. I am inspired a lot by the short stories of, who is probably my favorite fiction writer of all time. LatinoBuzz: Ok - For this interviews sake only - Your life has spiraled out of control, You've hit rock bottom - You are offered a second chance. Butyou have to direct a film based on a childhood game (Board or Video game).
Is producing so you are in Great hands. And who stars in it?: Definitely '. From the band Deerhunter had a great idea that he posted on his blog of making one of their music videos about a lonely boy who is playing the original Nintendo 'Legend of Zelda' and the hero of the video game is echoing the kid's feeling of loneliness, walking aimlessly around these dark landscapes in the game. Then his abusive, drunk father comes in and starts beating him, and it's the beginning of a story about how the kid is escaping into playing the video game and how he transcends his abusive surroundings. I would want to collaborate with Bradford and about turning this into a feature film version of 'Zelda' starring. This is a movie I would definitely want to see.
LatinoBuzz: You went to Columbia Film School. There's the endless discussion of Film School versus skipping it and just making a film - Both sides have great arguments. How do you feel about some of these short films with outrageous budgets when some people are trying to make features with the same amount?: I think it's less about the budgets of these films and more about whether they work as films at all. A few of my film school classmates went really overboard making their shorts that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars, and trying to be the star of the class or win an award right out of the gate.
I think it's wiser to think of making films as a progression through a body of work. Your budget can be small, but if you have a great idea that is well executed, this will always win out in the end. There are also really great short filmmakers that don't transition well into feature films. For me film school was beneficial in the sense that it got me out of Texas and forced me into a situation where I had to learn how to tell stories and work on the basics of narrative filmmaking. But in retrospect, the most beneficial aspect of the whole film school experience was being in New York City and beginning to take advantage of all the resources that are here. So much of that was outside of film school for me.
It wasn't really until I started going out downtown and moved to Brooklyn that things began to change for me. I was meeting other artists and having experiences that made me want to keep working and coming up with ideas. The downsides are that it left me with a lot of debt and the environment of film school itself can be somewhat unbearable and suffocating. It's competitive and can often times can be a difficult place to find support and inspiration. When I started film school it was in the late 90's. The equipment was terrible and there was a very old model of distribution and exhibition in place for up-and-coming filmmakers. Now, anyone can by a 5D and and make something that looks fantastic.
I don't think film school is right for everyone and would encourage filmmakers that are interested in doing it to weigh their options very carefully. At the end of the day what you buy is a sort of entrance into the film world, but if you don't have an interesting perspective to back it up, you can get lost in the shuffle. LatinoBuzz: Any particular films or filmmakers that inspired the aesthetic of your vision for 'Four'?: The two films I kept coming back to with Four were ' and 's. They are both films that take place over a day or a night and both have a sort of intimacy in style that I found fit well with the story and characters of Four. I wanted the film to have the sort of Americana feel of say, mixed with the emotional rawness of.
I also watched a lot of Two Lane Blacktop and the film Over The Edge, which is about a teen rebellion in a small American suburban town. LatinoBuzz: Anything as a filmmaker so far you wish you had done differently?:I think there are always things that you wished you'd done differently, but there is really nothing I regret in terms of my career as a filmmaker. It's a long road for anyone that wants to do this and it certainly has been for me as well. But I came to the conclusion a long time ago that I was only interested in doing the films that I feel passionate about partially because it's so much work and sacrifice. You really have to believe in what you are doing to make it worth your time. I'm proud of the body of work I've produced and hope I can continue to do it!
