The 12th Annual International Puerto Rican Heritage Film Festival (IPRHFF) is back from November 9 – 13, 2022 with an exhilarating roster of films, shorts, animation, and panel discussions with industry influencers and thought leaders. The five-day festival aims to foster a collaborative environment for artists from all countries to explore issues inherent to the heritage of Puerto Rico, its diaspora, and explore stories relevant to the larger Latino community.

The International Puerto Rican Heritage Film Festival kicks off at El Museo del Barrio’s El Teatro featuring the film MIXTAPE. When the socially awkward (music prodigy) new kid on campus seeks to win the affections of the most popular girl in school, he enlists the help of an unlikely mentor–the school janitor.
