Gentefied, Netflix's new series about a Mexican-American family from Boyle Heights, Los Angeles, is a painstakingly crafted love letter to that specific Latinx community. Described as a rich tapestry of the neighborhood by its creators Marvin Lemus and Linda Yvette Chávez, Gentefied was originally an anthology-style web series following seven different characters struggling to navigate the gentrification of Boyle Heights.
