Description
“We won Sundance! What the fuck?” If you’re an outsider, the film industry can be seemingly impossible to penetrate. It’s even more difficult to tell your story - and have it seen - when it’s a semi-autobiographical coming-of-age tale about a queer Latina and her alcoholic father set in a small town in New Mexico. That story became the indie filmmaking miracle In the Summers, a deeply personal tone poem that won the top two prizes at Sundance 2024, America’s most prestigious film festival. To explore the movie's journey from pre-production to Sundance, we interviewed the star of the film, music legend Residente in his first major acting role, and director Alessandra Lacorazza, whose life story inspired this new queer/Latino classic.
