La Americana took the best documentary prize at the Urbanworld Film Festival in New York City, and received a special jury mention for Best Documentary at the Los Angeles Latino International Film Festival.
After a rousing screening in Kansas City I’m currently showing the film in Birmingham, Alabama, at the Sidewalk Moving Picture Festival, and John Mattiuzzi is attending a screening at the San Diego Film Festival. From here the film goes to DocsDF in Mexico City and then to Washington DC for the National Geographic Film Festival.

We will be updating the La Americana site with a a press section soon, which will include some great reviews from the Sun Sentinel, Austin Chronicle, Baltimore City Paper, and more. In the meantime, here’s a review we liked from the Village Voice-owned New Times of Palm Beach:
Catch preview screenings of La Americana at the Staten Island Film Festival on June 6th and 7th, at The Tank on June 25th, followed by the official NYC premiere at the HBO New York International Latino Film Festival in July. Visit www.la-americana.com and click “screenings” for showtimes and locations as they become available.
I was interviewed about La Americana during the Maryland Film Festival on the local Fox station. We went on to have two packed screenings and a great review in the Baltimore City Paper which we will post soon. We have also added comments to this site so you can click below to post your thoughts.
