Synopsis
LAS MARTHAS unravels the origins of the celebration and explores why a town like Laredo, with such deep Mexican roots, feels such affinity for America’s Founding Father, and how against all odds, the Washington’s Birthday Celebration has managed to persevere and even flourish, thanks to the Mexican American girls who continue to wear the gilded burden of tradition.

Co-presented with the Emma S. Barrientos Mexican American Cultural Center (ESB-MACC) at their annual womxn in the arts event- La Mujer (April 21 - 24, 2021).
