Perez Art Museum Miami will screen PAMM collection artist and filmmaker Luis Gispert’s first feature film, Cajita. This screening will be Cajita’s Miami premiere and will be followed by a Q&A with Luis Gispert, artist William Cordova, and producer Ryan Murphy. Cajita recently won best film at the New York Latino Film Festival. Inspired by a true story this intimate tale follows Cajita, an immigrant laborer with a murky past who fled his country by shipping himself in a crate to the US. Cajita now lives off the grid performing odd jobs for an upper-class family. After an unforeseen event forces Cajita into a chancy situation, his best friend lays out a risky plan to help free Cajita from his dangerous dilemma.
The film will be screened from the water, and you are welcome to bring lawn chairs and blankets to set up the perfect sunset spot on the beach. Food and drinks will be available for purchase.
