The principle purpose of this page is for students of LALS 3770: Latin American Cinema: Contemporary Mexican Directors to be able to connect and have discussions. Any intellectual and academic input is encouraged! The goal is to discuss themes we cover in class and/or share any info we think is interesting. This semester we are going to try to have a Latin American Film Club that meets on Fridays
