ESPIRALITO

Este es mi rinconcito de corazon, comunidad, y cultura. Soy una xicana jalisciense-duranguense muy parrandera, rebelde, y atrevida. hecha en Los Angeles. Vivo en Texas.

Mosquita Y Mari (2012) is a triumph for our community. Made by a Aurora Guerrero, a beautiful Xicana, this film is a colorful narration as liberating as a breath of fresh air after a sweat lodge. It felt ceremonial to let the tears roll and our hearts grow heavy in front of the screen. It felt as if a long lost sister held your hand and walked you through mutual secrets of pain and beauty through shots of moving long black hair, smooth brown skin, glowing smiles in the sun and smog, and natural use of spanglish. Finally and thank you.
