director Juan Carlos Zaldivar in attendance
Cuban American filmmaker Juan Carlos Zaldivar, once a 13-year-old loyalist of the Cuban Revolution, recounts the strange twist of fate that took him across one of the world's most treacherous stretches of water in 90 MILES. Director Juan Carlos Zaldivar will be on-hand to introduce the film and answer questions after the screening. Juan Carlos is in Austin serving as one of the panelists for the Austin Film Society's 2008 Texas Filmmakers' Production Fund, a grant program for Texas filmmakers.
