Hey guys come to HollyShorts (HSFF) to see my reggeaton drama MELA. PUERTO RICAN as fuck.

I dream of running a cute turtles social media account.

Finding out the Island Boys are Cuban has me fucked up.

Wish Puerto Ricans had the power they need to change things. But this film, it matters, our stories matter. Who tells our stories matters. Cinema and Reggeaton meet here.

White folding chairs are now bout to be treated with REVERENCE.

100 days of striking. Geez.

Sad thing about this strike is, I’m pretty sure post strike Puerto Rican screenwriters will still not get hired. :(. But I hope they do.

I just wanna be a pasta slut

Absolutely loved Ángel Manuel Soto ‘s #BlueBeetleMovie !!! Hilarious, heartfelt and so culturally specific but completely welcoming to all. And it made me cry. Congrats to the charming AF Xolo Mariduena and entire cast and crew!!! FELICIDADES A TODOS!

Seeing all the Latino names in the credits for #BlueBeetle really warms my heart 🥲💙

Hollywood

Got 3rd place. We'll get em next year.

My pal Kristian Mercado Figueroa's debut flick IF YOU WERE THE LAST hits Peacock tomorrow. It's a witty, colorful rom-com about two stranded astronauts contemplating on banging, led by Anthony Mackie & Zoë Chao. Here's our interview for altpress from #SXSW23. altpress.com/kristian-merca…

Latinx Futurism is a movement that envisions an alternate future while acknowledging current circumstances and maintaining a deep connection to the past (with Zeke Peña, Jorge Antonio Losoya + @kris_merc)

I absolutely loved #IfYouWeretheLast from Boricua Kristian Mercado Figueroa! This witty & charming romcom dares to explore the “If we were the last two people in the world” dilemma by exploring subjects such as love, sex, the future & boundaries. #ZoeChao & #AnthonyMackie chemistry is superb!

My movie is on Peacock go see it please!

Does being lost in space count as a hall pass? 🤔 #IfYouWereTheLast is streaming now on Peacock.

Véanla. Buenísima película, hecha por el boricua Kristian Mercado Figueroa 🇵🇷 Also, my sister's in it 😁 Look for the Computer voice 🤗💙

IF YOU WERE THE LAST, a 2020 Black List script by @angelabourassa1, is now streaming on Peacock! The film stars Anthony Mackie + Zoe Chao and is directed by Kristian Mercado Figueroa - cheers to the entire cast and crew! youtube.com/watch?v=rRdKIv…

The studios are buying less. Even if they buy your pitch, will the fear-based development homogenize it? Even if they "greenlight" it, will it be cast contingent? Even if they make it, could they shelve it later as a write off? Consider what you can make now, within your means.
