Y TU MAMÁ TAMBIÉN
Wednesday, Mar 26, 2025 7:00 PM
On Wednesday, March 26th, join author and professor Juan Llamas Rodriguez, University of Pennsylvania's Center for Latin American and Latinx Studies, Mexican Cultural Center and Community College of Philadelphia for a screening of Y Tu Mamá También and the release of Llamas-Rodriguez' book on the film.
A staple of New Mexican Cinema, Y Tu Mamá También courted controversy with its explicit depictions of teenage sexuality and its forthright perspective on the country’s inequality. In his new book, Prof. Juan Llamas-Rodriguez revisits Y Tu Mamá También after more than two decades of social, industrial, and technological change to show how it astutely captures a particular moment in Mexican history and global film culture.
Join us starting at 6:30pm for activities and giveaways to learn more about Mexican society and culture. Screening starts at 7:00pm, followed by Q&A with Prof. Llamas-Rodriguez about the film.
