Pop Art Painter Jamie Roxx (www.JamieRoxx.us) welcomes Jon Garcia, Co-Writer, Director (SUMMONING THE SPIRIT | Movie: Horror) to the Show!  (Click to go there) ● IG: @summoningthespirit ● IMDB: www.imdb.com/title/tt26958570 ●  WEB: jongarciafilms.net Dark Star Pictures will release supernatural sasquatch horror SUMMONING THE SPIRIT on digital and DVD this August. The film, written by Jon Garcia and Zach Carter and directed by Garcia, premiered to rave reviews at the Miami Film Festival with outlets calling the film “captivating” (Film Factual), saying it “revels in its atmosphere and it is thick with paranoia" (Reel Reviews); further, Blair Witch Project producer Greg Hale says of the film, "STS is a great addition to the sub-sub-genre of Bigfoot horror. The film turns convention on its head with a fresh take on Sasquatch while still delivering on the fun and the scares." SUMMONING THE SPIRIT follows Carla (Krystal Millie Valdes) and Dean (Ernesto Reyes) as they decide to escape the hustle of the big city, purchasing a home in the remote forest. They have big plans for their new quiet life, only to find something much more sinister. The couple quickly realize that they are on the land of a cult, and the leader claims a telepathic connection to a legendary flesh-eating beast deep in the woods surrounding them. Carla and Dean are forced to uncover the terrifying truth of the cult's prophecy. ● Media Inquiries: October Coast PR www.octobercoastpr.com

In 2019 I was invited to a movie premiere for Vandal at "Miami Film Festival" at the Tower theater in Little Havana Miami FL. A movie about the gritty Miami street art scene and the dark side of the city. I absolutely loved the movie and felt connected to it so I really enjoyed attending. I was able to speak with lead actor Daniel Zovatto plays (Nick 'Damage' Cruz), Frankie J. Alvarez plays (Chino) & Richard Schiff plays (Jacob Lipman). I made the a "Mini Episode" since it is so short, but so fun ENJOY! This is Come Art Me Bro! Credit: Vandal Vandal is the story of Nick Cruz, also known as “Damage,” a young, highly talented graffiti writer and artist, struggling to justify the world of illegal graffiti as he experiences loss, love and the consequences he created for himself. Set against the back drop of the world famous Wynwood Arts District in Miami, the film explores the personal and societal struggles of an extremely talented underground graffiti writer living by a code that is no longer justifiable in the new world of globalized graffiti/street art. Vandal, inspired by true stories, was shot on location in Miami's Wynwood, Little Havana, and Little Haiti neighborhoods, highlighting Miami's gritty streets as well as its multi-cultural heritage. Directed by Jose Daniel Freixas Starring Daniel Zovatto, Otmara Marrero, Juan Pablo Raba, Frankie J. Alvarez, Ralph Rodriguez, Dax Rudnak, and Beau Knapp, with Richard Schiff.

Dawn and Edson Jean dive deep into personal experiences and family histories in this episode. They talk about the immigrant experience, the importance of finding your community, financial literacy of lower and middle classes, the power of story and a whole lot else. LUDI is about a Haitian immigrant living in Miami overworking and getting caught in the hamster wheel that is capitalist America because she has to take care of herself and her family in Haiti. LUDI was the opening night film at the Miami Film Festival and recently screened at SXSW. Excited for you to listen to this episode and keep the conversation going.

This week on Special Edition of Sean at the Movies, I attended screenings at the Virtual South by Southwest Film Festival. I had the chance to talk with artists and actors from the buzziest titles at one of the most prestigious festivals in the country. In this episode Kelly Kali and Deon Cole discuss, in separate interviews, the much loved festival hit "I'm Fine Thanks for Asking." Phillip Gelatt and Galen Morgan King are bringing back the genre of Fantasy Animated Adventure for adults with the new animated epic The Spine of Night featuring the voices of Patton Oswalt, Joe Manganiello, Lucy Lawless and Richard E Grant. TV is also in the spotlight at SXSW as the Canada short form series For the Record is at SXSW hoping to find an American home for it's music based exploration of life and love and relationships. And finally, one of my favorite movies to come from SXSW is one I actually saw as part of the Miami Film Festival but took the chance to see again at SXSW. It's called Ludi and it's the deeply empathetic story of a Haitian immigrant working, scrimping and saving to care for her family back in Haiti. The film is wonderful sad but also absurd with a strange and poignant sense of humor. I adore this movie.

Como lo prometido es deuda, volvemos hoy con la segunda parte de la banda sonora de esta excelente película o documental, como queráis, que firma Fernando Trueba y que se llama Calle 54. Bebo Valdés grabó su primera descarga de jazz cubano en 1952, Cachao lo hizo cuatro años más tarde. Ambos son una leyenda, no solo en el entorno del Latin Jazz, en el mundo entero. Se conocían desde la infancia pero, por esas cosas de la vida, nunca habían grabado juntos. Y, con gran acierto, eligieron para histórica ocasión una canción eterna, “Lagrimas Negras”. Lo que hacen estos hombres es imposible de transcribirlo en un pentagrama porque el sentimiento, el feling, no se enseña en el conservatorio. A ambos les tocó vivir el destierro forzado y el ostracismo durante varios años. Cachao se vinculó a músicos en Nueva York, y vivió entre esta ciudad y Las Vegas, hasta que recaló en Miami, donde apenas tocaba en pequeños eventos sociales. De Chucho es bien sabido que partió a Europa y se estableció en Suecia, donde se enamoró y para subsistir tocaba en hoteles y restaurantes de Estocolmo. Ambos tuvieron la suerte de que fueron rescatados del olvido. A Cachao, Andy García. A Bebo, Paquito D’Rivera. Cuando eso sucedió, por fortuna para los amantes de la música, el enérgico caudal de la genialidad de ambos resurgió en unos cuantos proyectos, pero especialmente en este de Fernando Trueba, quien los reunió en lo que es el único documento de fácil acceso hoy día, como fue la interpretación de Lágrimas negras, cada uno desde su instrumento y con la complicidad de la sabiduría. Padre e hijo, Bebo y Chucho Valdés. No han tenido una relación fácil. Apenas se veían desde la revolución cubana. Bebo emprendió el camino del exilio en 1960 y tuvieron que pasar 18 años para que padre e hijo se reencontraran. Tampoco fue fácil esta primer encuentro, más bien bastante tenso, hizo falta tiempo para limar asperezas. Antes de esta grabación hacia cinco años que no se veían pero no hubieran estado más próximos si hubieran convivido bajo el mismo techo. Fernando Trueba, gracias amigo, les convenció para que “conversaran” a dos pianos utilizando “La comparsa”, de Lecuona, como puente. Veréis que, desde la primera nota, Chucho está en función de su padre, a su servicio. El alumno rinde homenaje al maestro. Unos meses después, Chano Domínguez comentó: “Tantos grandes pianos reunidos en esta sesión… pero ninguno como Bebo”. Esto es “La comparsa”. Volvemos a encontrar en la sesión a Eliane Elías, la pianista brasileña. Y en este caso, fuera de cámara. Ya no se rueda, solo se disfruta de la música, que continúa con vida propia. De forma más o menos improvisada, Eliane nos obsequia una romántica versión de su hermosa balada “Eso fue todo”. Un dialogo entre amantes (piano y contrabajo) que no llegaron a más. Las escobillas de Takeishi hacer las veces de un corifeo griego, testigo de un amor que nunca fue. Jerry González conoció a Chano Domínguez apenas una semanas antes de iniciarse el rodaje. El encuentro se produjo en el club Bailey’s del Miami Film Festival. Como unas almas gemelas, y de la noche a la mañana, se hacen inseparables. Para celebrarlo, nos dejaron una dulce versión del famoso bolero “Cómo fue” que es puro swing y sentimiento. Cuando parece que todo ha acabado y los músicos se van dispersando, vemos que todavía quedan unos supervivientes en pie de guerra. Así que, en un abrir y cerrar de ojos, se monta un delicioso “Boulevard francés”, el famoso estándar de Bud Powell capaz de alegrar al más amargado. Y como de jolgorio va la cosa, enseguida aparece Paquito con su saxo alto. Por arte de magia, el boulevard francés se traslada al malecón de la Habana. Y como de una película se trata, finalmente llegan los créditos. A petición de Trueba, Jerry despide la sesión con el riff de los Apache, solo que los músicos que nombra protagonizan buena parte de la historia del jazz latino durante su medio siglo de existencia. Y fin. Todos los que participaron en Calle 54, técnicos, músicos, invitados, fueron conscientes de haber vivido una experiencia única e irrepetible. Nosotros lo hemos podido constatar a través de los discos. Esta música es el testimonio de la pasión de unos locos de jazz latino. Nos veremos en el manicomio. Hasta la semana que viene amigos, y, como no … ¡¡¡Buenas Vibraciones!!!

The 2019 documentary Pahokee is a landmark project for filmmakers Ivete Lucas and Patrick Bresnan and a sign of hope for the rural South Florida community whose story they tell. An official selection in 2019 Sundance and South by Southwest Film Festivals, Pahokee won the Miami Film Festival’s 2019 Knight Made in Miami Award. Perched on the Southeastern shore of Lake Okeechobee in the Everglades, forty miles west and a world apart from affluent West Palm Beach, Pahokee is named after the Seminole word meaning "grassy waters.” In the film, we follow four students as they navigate the hope and heartbreak of their senior year at Pahokee High School. All eyes are on the rituals of football, prom and graduation in the town these teenagers call home.

In 1999 Aaron Baker broke his neck in a motocross accident, leaving him completely paralyzed from the neck down. Despite doctor's grim prognosis, over the next 16 years Aaron decided not to listen to those who said 'he had a million-to-one odds of ever feeding himself again' and instead, through painstaking effort, endeavored to regain as much mobility as possible. This journey through the unknown took him from the depths of depression to the joys of cross country road tripping via tandem bicycle with his mother and friends, and finally, culminating in his opening a socially conscious low-cost gym focused on increasing mobility for the disabled. Now, in COMING TO MY SENSES, we watch as Aaron takes one final journey which symbolizes his recovery: crossing a 20-mile tract of Death Valley unsupported on foot. But will he make it? COMING TO MY SENSES will be available on EST platforms May 15, with VOD on May 22 . The feature length documentary won the Audience award at the Austin Film Festival and Best Documentary at Red Rock Film Festival, has played at the Miami Film Festival, Mammoth Film Festival, and will screen at the Newport Beach Film Festival later this month. Directed by Dominic Gill and produced by Nadia Gill, editing is by Dominic Gill and Nick Andert. Julian Cautherley executive produces and original music is by Cody Westheimer. COMING TO MY SENSES is distributed by The Orchard. For more information on the film visit http://www.tomysenses.com/

Today, we invite three women writers to talk about Cuba as a character in newly released films. Our portal to the Cuban psyche is the 35th Miami Film Festival that brings diverse cultural perspectives to the big screen in theaters across Miami, Florida. Sharing their expertise and personal knowledge of Cuba's socio-political landscape are two sisters born in Miami, to Cuban parents: writer and filmmaker Carmen Peláez and food writer Ana Sofia Peláez. New York based journalist and filmmaker Michelle Memran joins us to remember her own encounters with the culture while making a documentary film with Cuban American playwright María Irene Fornés. In this conversation, we consider the value of creativity, resilience, family and friendship in Cuba. The country’s historic relationship and chaotic rupture with the Soviet Union is the backdrop for the three stories we introduce. (The 1989 fall of the Berlin Wall and collapse of the Soviet Union catapulted Cuba into a life-changing economic crisis from which Cubans around the world are still recovering.) The films: Cuban Food Stories, director Asori Soto; The Rest I Make Up, director Michelle Memran; and Sergio and Sergai, director Ernesto Daranas.   Sound Editor: Anamnesis Audio | Featured Sound Tracks courtesy of Miami Film Festival:  Cuban Food Stories, The Rest I Make Up, Sergio and Sergai

In this conversation, we talk about how the island country of Haiti has long inspired contemporary art, books and films and how the cultural complexity of immigrant communities is a creative force in South Florida. Come with us to the heart of Miami's Little Haiti neighborhood for a walk about with Carl Juste, a local cultural activist, photojournalist and artist whose family comes from Haiti and Cuba. Haitian-born writer Edwige Danticat introduces Foreigner's Home, a new film to premiere at the 35th Miami Film Festival. Miami-based curators Marie Vickles, Edouard Duval-Carrié and Tosha Grantham (with family ties to Greece and Africa, Haiti, Asia and America, respectively) talk about connecting cultural history to contemporary art in exhibitions at the Little Haiti Cultural Complex and share what sparked Visionary Aponte: Art & Black Freedom, the traveling exhibition that recently premiered in Miami. Cuban-born Lissette Mendez and Carl Juste share some of the stories behind the collective exhibition and book project Havana, Haiti and the annual Little Haiti Book Festival.

In this episode, Fariha and Kiva use the “Muslim ban” put in place by U.S. President Trump as a jumping-off point to highlight some of the exceptional filmmakers working in the seven countries affected by the Executive Order. They discuss Iraqi filmmaker Hussein Hassan’s decision not to bring his documentary THE DARK WIND to the Miami Film Festival because of the ban. Asghar Farhadi, similarly, opted not to attend the Academy Awards despite the Best Foreign Language Film nomination for THE SALESMAN.
