Brownsville Bred
Written and Directed by Elaine Del Valle
Adapted from her award-winning novel & critically acclaimed stage play, HBO Latinx Director award, and SXSW-winning director, Elaine Del Valle brings her powerful true coming-of-age story to the screen.
As much a coming-of-age drama as a gritty slice of Urban-American Latina adolescence amidst the height of the 1980s Brooklyn crime epidemic, this provocative look at longing, vulnerability, resilience, identity, and family love will leave a distinct footprint on the 2025 festival circuit!
