About documentary film: "San Juan, más allá de las murallas"
A dialogue between the present and the past reveals an untold story about the founding and development of San Juan, Puerto Rico’s capital. “San Juan, más allá de las murallas”, a production commissioned by Fundación Banco Popular, commemorates the 500th anniversary of San Juan and exposes decisive moments that helped forge Puerto Rican identity.
Puerto Rican actor Ismael Cruz Córdova (Lord Of The Rings: Rings Of Power) is in charge of interviewing historians and intertwining the present with history, which began with the appointment of Juan Ponce de León as governor during Spanish colonization.
Directed by Puerto Rican filmmaker Mariem Pérez, this documentary became one of the most viewed Puerto Rican films on the Island. It is a film that contributes to understanding the influence of historical events on the reality of Puerto Rico in our days.
This screening will take place March 11th @ 4:00pm at CROMA Venue (Arlington Street Church). Doors open 3:30 pm.
