Perspective
The festival helped pave the way for diverse groups and cultures in the film industry.[1] Ethan van Thillo founded the festival in 1993.[2][3] In 2000, they received over 5,000 attendees[4] and in 2002, van Thillo said the festival really came together with help from participants and media outlets that visit from Tijuana.[5] In 2007, the Arte Latino exhibit was included at the festival's screenings.[6]
Each year, a competition is held with different posters to decide which one will represent the festival.[7] By 2011, the Premio Corazon Award was designed by Lizet Benrey[8] and the festival's 12th annual Cinema En Tu Idioma, a series of films, had a one week run at Ultrastar Mission Valley Cinemas near Hazard Center station.[9] In 2023, the 30th anniversary festival took place at AMC Theatres at Westfield Mission Valley and Digital Gym Cinema.[10]
