Update: Luis Valdez is no longer able to attend this screening. Director David Alvarado will still be in attendance. “Enlightening and entertaining.” —The Hollywood Reporter “[AMERICAN PACHUCO] offers a rousing assertion that Chicano art is as American as it gets.” —IndieWire Playwright and filmmaker Luis Valdez brought the Chicano experience into the American cultural mainstream with the films ZOOT SUIT and LA BAMBA. His own story, here told by documentarian David Alvarado, is every bit as drama-filled as his works. With filmmaker David Alvarado in person.
