Announcing our PNW PREMIERE: MEXICANAMERICAN screens at the 2026 Bainbridge Island Film Festival (@bifilmfest) on Sunday, November 15 at 4:30 PM at the Historic Lynwood Theatre, followed by a filmmaker Q&A.

The New York Times: “An earlier form of media is collaged into a moving ancestral story in ‘Mexicanamerican’ from Eddie Sánchez. For his feature debut, the filmmaker sifted through hours of home video recorded by his parents, Lalo and Beby, to assemble the tale of their meeting in Mexico and move to Oregon, where they raised their children. The footage originally served as a kind of visual missive, captured by Lalo and Beby to mail to relatives in Mexico. Pairing the video with candid interviews about his parents’ passage to the United States and efforts to assimilate to a new culture, Sánchez crafts a portrait of diasporic identity that pulls from the past while tilting hopefully toward the future.”

MEXICANAMERICAN had its world premiere in competition at the 2026 Tribeca Festival, where it won the Audience Award for Best Documentary Feature.

Tickets are on sale now at bifilmfest2026.eventive.org and via the link in bio.

2025 was an absolute heater for IT’S A LOT! 🔥
We hit the circuit hard and the results are in: 12 festival selections, a semi-finalist spot, an award nomination, and 7 WINNER trophies for the mantle! 🏆
Not too shabby for our little show with a big heart. Now, we’re officially in “wait and see” mode while my agent works his magic to find this show its forever home. Stay tuned!
