Estuary Cinema
Last week, Estuario showed its monthly Cine del Estuario projection through a Facebook Video Premiere on Saturday, September 5 2020 at 7PM. Continuing its ongoing collaboration with the Documentary Filmmakers Association of Puerto Rico, Estuario showed Autorretratos (Series 8 & 10), two compendiums of self-reflective short films created by youth from the communities of Loíza and the Martín Peña Channel. The Series are produced by filmmakers Llaima Sanfiorenzo and Margaret Mair. They are part of a larger project called Fábrica de autorretratos, through which the filmmakers have enabled the documentation of people’s realities from communities all over the world. The broadcast had a peak of 25 viewers.
