This year, over 430,000 people attended the fest’s 10th edition, a milestone year for the film festival co-founded by Robert DeNiro, Jane Rosenthal and Craig Hatkoff. As in years past, it’s a great place to scout for talented new Latino filmmakers and actors!

Artificial Paradises (Mexico)
Winner of this year’s Best Cinematography in a Narrative Feature Film award at TFF, Artificial Paradises is an intimate look at a troubled young woman and a 50-year-old widower who strike up an unlikely friendship in a run-down beach resort as they each battle their drug addictions. The landscapes in Veracruz, Mexico, are simply breathtaking, thanks to DP Luisa Tillinger.
