For the first time screening in Boston: come see Filiberto, a feature-length biopic documentary about Filiberto Ojeda Ríos, a professional musician who abandons his trumpet and his family to live a clandestine life of armed revolutionary.
Join us after the screening for a special discussion with director Freddie Marrero Alfonso.
More about the film: OJEDA RÍOS becomes a strategic leader of groups notorious for their violent and dramatic acts to advance Puerto Rican independence. Along the way, he turned into a mythical figure having different names for each circle of persons he interacted with. Filiberto draws upon personal interviews as well as electronic wire-taps and photographic surveillance recordings of his underground life- to showcase counterpoint portrayals of the role of the FBI in their hunt for OJEDA RÍOS that ended in his controversial bloody death.
