We're playing in Reno and San Jose, CA!

Whew! What a tour!

We had A GREAT South Texas College Tour!
Thank you to everyone who came out!
Starting Sept. 20th-October 1st Director Ricardo Martinez and his trusty Production Manager/Tour Manager Lucia Martinez toured South Texas playing the new film The Wall.

They played 7 colleges in 10 days and plus an additional showing for the public at Bijou Cinemas, presented by the National Association of Latino Independent Producers- San Antonio (NALIP-SA).

In total they traveled close to 1000 miles and played 8 different venues, holding lively Q & A sessions after each one. The crowd was at times emotional but always respectful. They video-taped each Q &A and will present the results soon. Keep checking out the facebook page!

The Wall Coming to Holland, Michigan!

The Wall is playing two separate showings in Holland, Michigan!
Showing September 12th and 13th at the Knickerbocker Theatre.
The film plays Saturday at 6:30 PM and Sunday at 1:30 PM. Provided courtesy of Tulipanes Latino Art and Film Festival, we've brought you a special presentation of the film FOR FREE.
Tulipanes has arranged to host the filmmakers for a Q & A session afterward! We hope to engage audiences in this beautiful town two hours from Chicago and Detroit, right outside of Grand Rapids.

Check out our first bit of teaser press from the Holland Sentinel:

One of the films being shown on Saturday and Sunday is “The Wall,” by filmmaker Ricardo Martinez of New York City.
The documentary was filmed over three years and follows the implementation of the fence along the U.S.-Mexico border.
Martinez wants to show the documentary to people who have never been to the border. He hopes the film will start a dialogue about building a U.S.-Mexico border fence.
