GLAFF seeks to identify, nurture and empower all generations of Latin-American and BIPOC filmmakers with an emphasis on the unification of creative minds and building bridges between the U.S. and Latin America. Our foundation is built on the diversity of language and culture.
GLAFF is a part of the University of Guadalajara, and education is at the heart of our existence. We intend to build programs for students and early career filmmakers that address the pipeline issue in Hollywood. We want our GLAFF community to feel represented and know that everyone has a voice.The festival is a platform that gives the community the opportunity to tell history through their eyes.
