The International Latino Cultural Center of Chicago (ILCC) officially kicked-off the 29th Chicago Latino Film Festival (CLFF) last Thursday in a swanky opening ceremony honoring the historical, epic film “Cinco de Mayo: La Batalla,” held at the River East Arts Center. Attendees had the chance to mingle with Director of “Cindo de Mayo: La Batalla” Rafa Lara and Actor Kuno Becker while noshing on food catered by Zocalo Restaurant. We took some snapshots of the night’s event. To view more, visit our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/Lawndalenews. Or follow us on Tweeter, @News_Lawndale.
