Miami Hamilton student Alexander Hall makes his directing and producing film debut Monday, September 19, at 3 pm, in Room 114 Rentschler Hall kicking off the fall semester Diversity Film Series with his original movie “From the Midwest to Mexico.”

Hall, who received the Latin American Studies “Alejandro Garrote” Scholarship last spring, spent the summer working on this film in Mexico. The film is about the transcultural experiences of his friends from Michoacan, Mexico to Hamilton.

In addition, the following films also will be shown this semester as part of the series, which is sponsored by the Miami Hamilton Diversity Committee and the Office of Multicultural Services. The films are: “Innocent Voices,” October 10; “Real Women Have Curves,” October 24; “Station Agent,” November 7; and “Crash,” November 21. All films, except for Hall’s film, will be shown at 11:30 am in Room 114 Rentschler. They are free and open to the public.
