In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, the Travesias: Latino Cinema Film Series brings three amazing films to our Humboldt Park, Lozano and Vodak-East Side branches between September 21 and October 17.
See the film, then join a discussion in English and Spanish following each screening in our newest partnership with the Gene Siskel Film Center.
La Camioneta (screening dates and times) follows the journey of a decommissioned school bus from America to Guatamala, where it gets a new life.
In the Game (screening dates and times) provides an unflinching look at the inequalities that girls on Chicago’s South Side face as they attempt to access higher education through sports.
The Boy and the World (screening dates and times) is a beautiful, life-affirming animated feature of a boy’s journey from the country to the city in search of his father.
Attendees will receive two complimentary tickets to a screening at the center.
