 30th Annual CineFestival Announces Star-Studded Lineup
CineFestival en San Antonio, the nation’s longest running Latino film festival will celebrate its star-studded 30th anniversary from April 10-13 at the historic Guadalupe Theater. The theme for this year’s festival, which includes two Sundance award-winners, two world premieres and more than fifty cutting edge features, shorts and documentaries from around the world, is “Digital Revolutionaries: Celebrating 30 Years of Chicano Film and Video.”
 The four-day extravaganza kicks off on Thursday, April 10 with the Texas premiere of the celebrated Sundance award winner Sleep Dealer by founding NALIP member Alex Rivera. The film, which stars Leonor Varela (Voces inocentes), Jacob Vargas (Selena) and Luis Fernando Peña (Amar te duele), is a Sci-Fi mix of El Norte and Blade Runner that portrays a not too distant future where sleep is a commodity few can afford. The film’s director Alex Rivera will be present for the screening at the Guadalupe Theater on April 10th.
This year’s CineFestival is also proud to host the Texas premiere of Searchers 2.0, the new film by Alex Cox (Repo Man, Sid and Nancy). Searchers 2.0, which stars Del Zamora (Repo Man) and Ed Pansullo (Straight to Hell) is a comedic road trip through the Southwest that follows two out of work actors on a quest to Monument Valley to seek revenge on a screenwriter who did them wrong on the set of a Western.
