Mexican Consulate holding film festival - Four-night event in Bisbee will present look at Mexican culture - Arizona

The Mexican Consulate in Douglas is organizing a film festival from June 26-29 in Bisbee that is intended to let viewers get closer to Mexican culture.

The object of the event is to sensitize the audience regarding the lives of immigrants, the reasons they illegally cross the border, and their dreams and difficulties.

“We firmly believe that artistic samples are not only a path to promote culture, but also a way to present different points of view regarding social situations and, in this case, to contribute in the creation of a deeper understanding in a receiving-migrants community,” says a statement from the Mexican Consulate.”*
