Presented by the UIC Latino Cultural Center

Join the Latino Cultural Center for an interactive conversation with independent filmmaker Michael Torres about his research and upcoming documentary on Pedro Albizu Campos. Learn about the polarizing Puerto Rican revolutionary and the process of documenting his life story through film. Torres will share the historical significance of a movie dedicated to a controversial yet invisible figure in U.S. history.

Born in and inspired by the Bronx, Michael Torres is a self-taught filmmaker eager to tell his own stories. He has worked in film and television for over 10 years and is now a documentary Producer, Director, and Editor in California.
