CineNoche: IGUALADA

Movies FIlm

What’s Happening?

 

This month’s CineNoche screening at Violet Crown Cinema features a Cine Las Americas International Film Festival encore of IGUALADA, the 2024 Jury Award Winner for Best Documentary Feature. Join us in celebration of the film’s subject matter- black women in political leadership in Latin America!

 

IGUALADA
A film by Juan Mejía Botero

Colombia/Mexico/USA, 2024
Afro-Latin@/Documentary/Politics, 81 min
Spanish with English subtitles

In Colombia, a nation marred by profound racial and socio-economic disparities, a Black woman from a rural background challenges the status quo by launching a presidential campaign. Reappropriating the term “igualada,” Francia Márquez, catapults a movement to the upper echelons of power, by refusing to “know her place.” Fifteen years in the making, this documentary peels back the curtain on how unprecedented change can happen.

Violet Crown Cinema, 434 W 2nd St, Austin, TX 78701
