Newark Latino Film Festival

EST. 2018

In 2017 I realized that there was no
film festival for the diverse Hispanic
and Latino community here in Newark,
New Jersey. As a lifelong resident
born in Newark NJ. I am passionate
about my city and my culture. As a
filmmaker, I am passionate about my
art. My dream of launching the
NEWARK LATINO FILM FESTIVAL in
NEWARK came true in 2018
