We love independence…. in our art!
In this month’s newsletter, we are checking in with two previous guests on the podcast, Gabriella A. Moses & Cecilia Delgado! We featured their indie film, Boca Chica, last year and we were immediately enchanted by their artistry and thoughtful approach to their work.
Now, a year later, we chatted with Gabriella and Cecilia about updates on Boca Chica, their careers, and insights into their lives as indie filmmakers.

I love you for a hundred thousand reasons and there’s no one I’d rather say “I Do” with! Most of all because you’re you.

It is an honor and a privilege that over the next few days we will be announcing all of our 2024 winners, projects and individuals.
Well acted, extremely realistic, and so bitter – sweet. I am sort of convinced that this couldn’t have been acting, and I might need to do a deep dive on these actors, it just felt too real.
Cecilia Delgato did a brilliant job with this film, show casing just the extent that stable-instability love can cause. Temporary insanity in a calm poise moment. A part of you falls into the love story and is routing for love to win, and another part of you wants to quit your job so you never have to leave your children with other people again.
This is the type of film that has so many layers, and each time you watch it, you find a new emotional take on it. You might find yourself getting into a debate with… yourself.
Excellent work!

Join your hosts, Heather & Zoey, as they chat with Gabriella A. Moses, the director, and Cecilia Delgado, the editor, all about their new indie drama/coming of age film, Boca Chica! ✨
In this episode, Zoey & Heather dive into the world of international independent filmmaking and learn all about the process of bringing this beautiful film to life. Listen wherever you get your pods! 🎧
Filmed in the Dominican Republic and championed by a powerhouse team of female filmmakers, Boca Chica follows Desi, a 12 year old girl who spends her days dreaming on the beaches of her hometown of becoming a famous singer. When a lavish wedding reunites her family, her goal is threatened by lies, the ever-presence of child prostitution, and the looming sinister betrayal from those who should protect her most.
Boca Chica premiered at the Tribecca Film Festival in 2023 and Gabriella won the prestigious Nora Ephron award. It is currently on the festival circuit and will be at the NVision Film Festival in Palm Springs, CA in October and the New Orleans Film Festival in early November. Announcements are coming soon about renting and streaming the film, so go follow Gabriella, Cecilia, and Boca Chica on socials to stay up to date!
