Overview

The US – Mexico Kaleidoscope is a binational short film contest and festival that seeks to encourage and curate new narratives about the relationship between the United States and Mexico, and our two societies. The festival, organized by the Mexico Institute, Arizona State University, and the Universidad de Guadalajara, is uniquely binational, bringing together talented participants, jurors, and institutions from both countries. Join us for a screening of this year's winning films, followed by a talkback with filmmakers and a panel of experts on the bilateral relationship.

This event will be in-person only.
