These films are looked at for their contribution to Latino/Chicano film history as well as how we can go forward and make more amazing milestones as Latinos and Chicanos in film. Cultura Cinema is presented in a format that is easy to read and acknowledges the history behind the film, a brief summary of the movie and where to find it, along with a detailed analysis of what makes the film prominent in Latino culture and film history.
