FILMS: Documentaries for Hispanic Heritage Month NYTLN

[Ryan Goble]

Another great collection of doc films from Snag films from the New York Times Learning Network. This first short film they feature is something I wrote about last year - Drama of ELL & MATH tests "Immersion'. Snag seems to be licensing the Media that Matters films as well. Anyway...

See the full collection at the NTYLN including questions for the films listed below HERE.

 

Hispanic Hollywood

This is a special that celebrates the legacy on the silver screen of Hispanic entertainers (run time: 142 minutes).

La Caminata

A small town south of the Mexican border seeks to revive its community and stem the tide of migration to the United States (run time: 15 minutes).

Familia

The story of a Peruvian family trying to stay together in the midst of great difficulty and poverty (run time: 86 minutes).

Curious about Cuba: The Great Museums of Havana

“Curious About Cuba” shows a side of the island nation that we seldom hear about: its art, history and culture (run time: 35 minutes).
