SUMMARY:Eternity
DESCRIPTION:Director: David Freyne \nLanguage: English\nCountry: United States\nIn an afterlife where souls have one week to decide where to spend eternity\, Joan (Elizabeth Olsen) is faced with the impossible choice between the man she spent her life with (Miles Teller) and her first love (Callum Turner)\, who died young and has waited decades for her to arrive. \nIn this imaginative\, funny\, and swoonworthy romantic dramedy from director David Freyne\, the love triangle is given a fresh – and surprisingly profound – twist. With a buoyancy and charm that lend a playful energy to its high-concept premise\, Eternity is as emotionally layered as it is visually striking. What truly gives the film its weight is the quiet melancholy running just beneath the surface. Eternity reminds us that love is rarely simple…even in the afterlife.

SUMMARY:Cosmic Curiosity
DESCRIPTION:COSMIC CURIOSITY The Life and Times of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz\nWritten & Directed by Carmen Peláez \nCosmic Curiosity brings to life the story of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz\, a 17th-century Mexican nun\, poet\, and scholar whose love for learning defied expectations. At a time when education for women was rare\, she pursued knowledge with determination\, becoming one of the most influential literary figures of her era. \nThis engaging play blends Sor Juana’s writings with imagined moments from her daily life\, exploring her intellectual journey\, her decision to enter the convent\, and the challenges she faced. Cosmic Curiosity captures an era when poets\, scientists\, and philosophers were shaping the world through discovery and debate. \nWritten and directed by Carmen Peláez\, a Miami-based award-winning playwright\, actress\, and director (Fake\, The Cuban Vote\, Rum & Coke). She is a 2023 MacDowell Fellow\, Ellie Award recipient\, and HBO NYLFF Short Film Competition winner. As a dedicated teaching artist\, she helps young people develop their own plays. \nA small ensemble of professional actors will bring Cosmic Curiosity to the stage\, making Sor Juana’s story engaging and accessible. Through historical texts and theatrical storytelling\, the play explores her unconventional education\, her path to becoming a writer\, and her lasting influence. \nAudiences will follow her journey from a self-taught child prodigy to the first Hispanic woman to publish a book in Spain\, building a library of 4\,000 books. Once nearly forgotten\, she is now celebrated as a literary icon\, even appearing on the 100 Mexican peso bill. \nWith humor\, drama\, and poetry\, Cosmic Curiosity highlights a woman whose passion for learning still inspires today. \nKoubek Center Theatre\nStudent Matinees: January 28\, 29 & 30\nPublic Performance: Saturday January 31st at 3 PM\n\nFree Parking!

SUMMARY:Borris Larramendi
DESCRIPTION:Trovador rebelde\, talentoso\, vibrante\, irreverente y genuino: así se define al cantautor cubano\, Boris Larramendi\, que en su música ha logrado fusionar como nadie géneros tradicionales cubanos como la rumba\, la guajira\, el changüí\, la timba y el bolero con la sonoridad eléctrica del rock\, el funk\, el jazz y el pop. \nEsta mezcla logra una sonoridad única y original\, enriquecida por el diverso y profundo bagaje cultural de Larramendi\, y que provoca a quienes la escuchan tanto bailar y moverse al ritmo del folklore cubano que lleva impregnado\, como cantar y reflexionar con sus letras\, siempre inspiradas y sumergidas de una forma u otra en la nostalgia y la problemática cubana\, que al igual que a Larramendi\, ha obligado a millones de cubanos a vivir lejos de su tierra\, en la diáspora. \nSaturday March 7th – 8 PM\nKoubek center Theatre – 2705 SW 3rd St. Miami Fl 33135 \nFree valet parking!

SUMMARY:Perseverancia
DESCRIPTION:Documentary \nSpanish/English \nMexico \nPerseverancia is a tangible portrait of the life and extraordinary work of Tomás Sánchez\, one of the most relevant contemporary Latin American artists of our time. A master of dazzling imagery capable of contrasting nature in its vital\, almost mystical state – or wounded by human indifference – Sánchez’s poetic landscapes are a perpetual hymn to beauty and freedom consistent with his ecological philosophical vision. \nPerseverancia is the name of the sugar mill in Cienfuegos\, Cuba\, where Sánchez enjoyed his childhood alongside his mother\, his earliest artistic influence. Juan Carlos Martín presents Sánchez not only through his origins and influences\, but through the lens of the generation that marked a turning point amid the dictatorial uncertainty of 1980s Cuba. \nExpected guest: \nJUAN CARLOS MARTÍN / DIRECTOR \n2024 \n108 MINS

SUMMARY:Tropical Park
DESCRIPTION:Drama \nSpanish \nUnited States \nDuring a driving lesson\, two Cuban siblings – a newly arrived trans woman (Lola Bosch) and her estranged conservative brother (Ariel Texidó) – face each other for the first time in years\, with a silent Miami bearing witness outside their car windows. \nFrom local filmmaker Hansel Porras Garcia\, Tropical Park is a hybrid observational drama film shot in a single take and a love letter to Miami. \nOne of countless stories from the Cuban exile experience in the U.S.\, it’s a quiet meditation on coexistence\, memory\, and empathy. Here\, Garcia explores what it means to share space with those who see the world through a different lens\, and how love evolves when certain identities gently disrupt what once felt unquestionable. \nExpected guest \nHANSEL PORRAS GARCIA / DIRECTO \n2025 \n85 MINS

In Gibara\, he reunites with his admired former professor – himself an artist – who has been purged for his aesthetic vision and statements that do not align with the doctrine of Castroism.

SUMMARY:American Pachuco
DESCRIPTION:Documentary \nEnglish/Spanish \nUnited States \nEvolving from migrant farmworker to revolutionary artist\, Luis Valdez changed American culture. In the 1960s\, his El Teatro Campesino performed on flatbed trucks and helped mobilize workers to win the first farmworkers union contract\, and his Zoot Suit was the first Chicano play on Broadway. \nYet despite critical rejection that killed the show\, he persevered\, creating La Bamba – a breakout blockbuster that authentically depicted Mexican American life to the world. Now in its 60th year\, El Teatro continues to be a beacon for Latino/a creators. This is the story of an artist who gave voice to the overlooked and opened pathways for generations. \nWinner of both the Audience Award: U.S. Documentary and Festival Favorite Award at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival. \nDIRECTED BY DAVID ALVARADO \n2026 \n92 MINS

SUMMARY:Blue Trail
DESCRIPTION:Sci-Fi/Fantasy\, Drama \nPortuguese \nBrazil/Mexico/Netherlands/Chile \nIn a near-future Brazil\, productivity is a religion and the elderly are deemed expendable. Tereza (Denise Weinberg) is unceremoniously sent to The Colony\, a state-run exile for seniors. \nRefusing to be erased\, she escapes her daughter’s guardianship to pursue a final wish: to fly. Her journey down the Amazon’s waterways\, aided by a drug-smuggling boatman (Rodrigo Santoro) and a bible-selling rebel\, becomes a post-tropical delirium fueled by the psychedelic slime of a blue snail. \nDirector Gabriel Mascaro (Neon Bull) delivers an exquisite odyssey that reinvents the road movie. Visually stunning and fiercely anti-authoritarian\, The Blue Trail is a transfixing meditation on the radical\, sensual right to stay free. \nDIRECTED BY GABRIEL MASCARO \n2025 \n86 MINS
