Closing Night – 17th Annual Seattle Latino Film Festival
The 17th Annual Seattle Latino Film Festival comes to a powerful close with two thought-provoking films that explore healing, resilience, and the human spirit through the lens of Spanish-speaking storytellers.
We begin the evening with Cura Sana (Short Film, Spain, 2024), directed by Lucía G. Romero. This moving drama follows Jessica and Alma, two sisters entangled in a cycle of domestic violence. During a routine trip to the food stamp office on the mystical night of San Juan, they embark on a quiet journey of rediscovering love and compassion for one another. Through Romero’s tender storytelling, Cura Sana becomes a poetic reflection on breaking inherited patterns and finding light amid darkness.
The night continues with the feature presentation Why Didn’t Anyone Tell Me? (Colombia, 2024), directed by Agamenón Quintero.
This emotionally layered drama with touches of dark comedy immerses us in the turmoil of Jordi, a Spanish film director grappling with the aftermath of a toxic relationship. Torn between public scrutiny, creative insecurity, and the fear of intimacy, Jordi’s story unfolds as a raw exploration of masculinity, manipulation, and mental health. Quintero’s film offers a rare and honest look at the fragility of love and the journey toward emotional recovery.
Join us as we celebrate the Closing Night of SLFF 2025, an evening that honors the transformative power of cinema to heal, confront, and connect us all.
