F3 - Fullerton Film Festival - Viva Mexico: Mexican Short Films

Viva Mexico: Mexican Short Films

The Orange County Latino Film Festival is proud to co-present VIVA MEXICO: A PROGRAM OF MEXICAN SHORT FILMS with the Fullerton Film Festival. These films present every day lives of different people living, struggling, and surviving in the most populated city in the world Mexico City. The films reflect a deeper understanding of human behavior - from a parent going to extreme measures to find a solution for their only son's illness to seeing the world through the eyes of child. "We are honored to support the Fullerton Film Festival, and its efforts to bring quality cinema to Fullerton's growing Latino community" - Olga Plateado, Manny Saldivar and Freyr Thor.
