Short Documentaries Official Selection and Competition Lineup
SLFF is proud to present a captivating selection of short documentaries as part of our Official Selection and Competition lineup. These documentaries, showcasing diverse stories and perspectives from across the Spanish-speaking world, are a highlight of our free educational program celebrating Spanish Language Day.

La diosa quebrada  /  The Broken Goddess (Venezuela, 2023, 21 min.) *Short-documentary in Competition
Spanish w/ English subtitles
Directed by  Ximena Andrea Pereira

Synopsis:
Different times converge to explore a rupture that goes beyond a mere statue. It tells the story of Venezuela and of every Venezuelan who feels torn apart by a war that was never theirs. It also reflects the wounds of those living in the limbo of a migrant life.

Emilia (Spain, 2024, 19 min.) * Short-documentary in Competition
Directed by Rafa Arroyo

Synopsis:
The fractures in the Spanish State's reception system leave thousands of undocumented immigrants on the streets each year when they reach the age of majority. Emilia Lozano, an unwavering activist for human rights and the feminist movement, redefines the concept of family for many of them through her ongoing struggle for social justice, love, empathy, and solidarity.

Piñatas of Earthly Delights / Piñatas de las delicias terrenales (USA, 12 min.) * Official Selection
English
Directed by Tom Maroney

Synopsis:
A self-described "queer, half-breed South Texan artist," Roberto Benavidez insists on calling his artistic creations piñatas not paper sculpturesa sign of his devotion to the Mexican craft he loves. Beautiful, funny, and political, these meticulous, colorful works of art are unlike any piñata you've ever seen.

Distance / Distancia  (Honduras, 2023, 25 min.) * Short-documentary in Competition
Spanish w/ Englsih subtitles
Directed by César Hernández

Synopsis:
A series of intertwined stories and found footage explores the relationship between migration and violence in Honduras

Spanish w/ Englsih subtitles
Directed by Pamela Andrea Martinez Barrera

Synopsis:
Three alien women with futuristic sound headgear walk through enclosed spaces engulfed in sand. Connected by their shared ability to listen to the energy, vibrations, and sound transmissions emitted by abandoned objects of the past and future, these alien women react to the stories of migrant Venezuelan women carried by the objects. As the film progresses, the womens testimonials expand and intermingle as the alien women gain more control over their environment.

Spanish Joe Remembers / Spanish Joe Recuerda (USA, 2023, 26 min.) * Official Selection
English
Directed by Samuel A. Miranda
