boricua world premiere in nyc...

two summers ago i was asked to do some accounting work on a movie that a friend of mine directed right here in chicago and it's finally ready for viewing!! they won a coveted spot at the tribeca film festival this year, so those of you in nyc should really check out this movie. it was made with very little funding, and the entire cast and crew basically offered their services for free. it's an indie movie in every sense of the word. the writer/director is a very good friend of mine and i can't even begin to describe how proud i am of her to have finally realized her dream!

here's some info on when and where you can catch the screening of boricua.
