A Legacy of Smoke / Un legado de humo Spanish Immigrants in Tampa

Our documentary film, which explores the vestiges of the once vibrant Spanish presence in Tampa, Florida, is one of only 14 films selected from almost 400 entries to be featured at the Certamen Internacional de Cine Documental Sobre Migraciones y Exilios, in Mexico City, November 4-10, 2015.

We are deeply honored to be in this select group, and we’re thrilled to be able to bring our Tampa story to new venues and audiences.

Special thanks to all of our tampeño friends who helped make this possible, and, in particular, to the late Ángel Rañón, a true inspiration.
