The University of Central Florida is proud to present the first Latin American/LatinX Film Festival in honor of LatinX Heritage Month and our status as a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI). This film series aims to showcase the arts, language, and diverse issues that are important in a region of the world that is so significant to many of our students, faculty, and staff as well as the community of which UCF is a part. This film festival was possible due to the generosity of PRAGDA’s Spanish Film Club grant, and the support of the School of Politics, Security and International AffairsModern Languages and Literatures/Latin American StudiesUCF Global, and Florida Prison Education Project in collaboration with Puerto Rico Research HubDepartment of HistoryWomen’s & Gender StudiesDepartment of EnglishInterdisciplinary Studies and the College of Undergraduate Studies.
