"You seriously haven't noticed the way she looks at you?" HBO Latino has revealed a new official trailer for an indie drama titled La Leyenda Negra, which first premiered at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. It's now available to watch streaming on HBO. Made by Portuguese filmmaker Patricia Vidal Delgado, her feature debut, the film received a Special Mention at the Festival Mix Milano this year as well. Set in Compton, a soon-to-be undocumented teenager named Aleteia fights for her right to stay in America while risking her family, her friendships, and her first love. The film stars Monica Betancourt as Aleteia, Kailei Lopez, Irlanda Moreno, Maria Jose Fernandez, Sammy Flores, and Justin Avila. The film's exec producer Julianna Politsky explains: "The leads were actual students from Compton HS drawing from their personal experiences in the Latinx community. [It's] a timely, coming of age piece that supports female-driven, Latinx, LGBTQIA stories, and voices." If you're interested in this story, looks like it's worth a watch. ›››
