“Hecho en Tejas” is a series of films produced in Texas. The films are eligible for a Jury Award and Audience Award presented in partnership with the Texas Film Commission (TFC) and the Texas Archive of the Moving Image (TAMI) and support from HEB.
Drama, Fantasy, Female-Directed
Agatha (74) and Leonidas (36) maintain an absorbing mother-son relationship: Agatha never fell in love again and Leonidas does not dare to build a life outside the doors of the family home.
One day, Agatha suddenly wakes up in the body of a little girl: as herself, but at the age of seven.
The only possible solution after having cut off all ties with the outside world for fear of giving explanations, will be to call Elisa (38), Agatha's eldest daughter, who despite having become independent a long time ago, will return to the family home to repair wounds that remain open.
Children's, Documentary, Fantasy, Western
A free showcase of short films not in competition, the Panorama Shorts Showcase is a selection of six films representing the United States and Mexico. The films include three documentaries, children's/fantasy short, and a western. Cine Las Americas considers this diverse array of important films as essential to share with central Texas audiences.
