This September, The Pearl partners with the West Chester Film Festival for an evening of short films that celebrate Latino voices, stories, and the many ways they shape and enrich our communities.
On Saturday, September 12 we open our Hispanic Heritage Month celebration with a curated selection of shorts chosen to move us and remind us of the richness Latino artists bring to the screen.
There’s magic in short films. In just a few minutes, a filmmaker can present us with an entire world, a whole feeling, a story that never leaves us. Our friends at West Chester Film Festival will curate a program of films that speak to our community and welcome everyone who loves a great story well told.
Come early, stay late, and let us kick off Hispanic Heritage Month together.
