About Us
The Latin American Film Center (LAFC) is a nonprofit organization that presents Latin American and Caribbean films through screenings, discussions, and artist-led events across New York City.
We work with independent theaters, museums, and community venues to show new releases, restored classics, experimental works, and documentaries. Our programs are shaped by the histories, politics, and everyday lives of the region.
Though we currently operate as a roving initiative, we hope to one day open a permanent film center. The envisioned space would include a two-to-four screen theater, a conference room, a film archive, and research facilities. Check out our preliminary architectural design below.
In the meantime, check out our Programming page to see what we've been up to.
