EXCLUSIVE: The Latinx House is coming back to the Sundance Film Festival.
First planting its flag at the last in-person Park City shindig in 2020, the gathering founded by Mónica Ramírez, Alexandra Martinez Kondracke and Olga Segura returns to Main Street for a series of events, panels and activations during the 2023 fest’s opening weekend.
“We are thrilled to come back to Sundance to continue uplifting and celebrating all Latinx filmmakers that have worked so hard to get their movies made and now have an opportunity to share it with the world at the festival,” Waiting for the Barbarians producer Segura told Deadline after a two-year virtual pause. “Creating a space to build community and celebrate our achievements has always been one of our main goals. Our continued collaboration with Sundance is helping us build a bridge to create more opportunities for Latinx creators in the industry for many years to come.”
In what is looking like the most representation rich ever of the Robert Redford created SFF, the full public schedule for the 2023 Latinx House can be found here.
“The Latinx House returning to Sundance is a celebration of culture, pride, and creating a legacy,” added Ramirez. “The stories of the Latinx community are vital in sharing the American experience, and the ways our country has grown thanks to the contributions of Latinx people,” the attorney and activist went on to say. “The Sundance Institute has been a supportive partner of The Latinx House since our launch in 2020, and we plan to continue to work to share powerful stories, and remain in partnership to shine a light on representation, opportunity, and community, and build and deepen relationships.”
