Her Last Day in the U.S.- Premiere

Presented by TransLatin@ Coalition and The Center for Cultural Power.

Join Ibañez Productions and TransLatin@ Coalition for the powerful premiere of Her Last Day in the U.S., a moving short film by Armando Ibañez.

The film follows an elderly undocumented mother who, after nearly 40 years in the United States, makes the heartbreaking decision to return to her home country. Through an intimate and deeply human lens, Her Last Day in the U.S. explores themes of migration, belonging, sacrifice, identity, and the quiet strength of mothers whose stories too often remain unseen. It invites audiences to reflect on what it means to build a life in a place that may never fully claim you and what it costs to leave it behind.

Info: Begin the evening in community with light refreshments and a special curated exhibit of props, stills, and wardrobe from the film. This immersive installation offers a closer look at the textures, memories, and personal artifacts that shaped the story.

Info: Stay for a meaningful conversation, moderated by Nava Mau, with the cast members and creators as they explore the film’s themes and the importance of creating spaces for healing, visibility, and dialogue.

Info: Following the discussion, join us for a community reception where you can meet the cast and creative team, enjoy photo opportunities, and continue the conversation in the lobby area.
