“TORTILLA HEAVEN” TO RECEIVE LOCAL PREMIER IN FREE SCREENING AT NATIONAL HISPANIC CULTURAL CENTER Shot in New Mexico, national film features local actors: Irene Bedard, Miguel Sandoval, Gino Silva, Del Zamora, Judy Herrera, and Deborah Chavez Also starring: José Zúñiga, Olivia Hussey, and George Lopez (Albuquerque, NM) The film “Tortilla Heaven”, shot in New Mexico and featuring local actors, including Irene Bedard (“Pocahontas”), Miguel Sandoval (“Blow”), Gino Silva (“Into the West”), Del Zamora (“Repo Man”), Judy Herrera (“Tortilla Soup”), and Deborah Chavez (“Lockdown”), will receive its New Mexico premier in a special screening at the National Hispanic Cultural Center on Thursday, September 20. The film also stars José Zúñiga (“The O.C.”), Olivia Hussey (“Romeo and Juliet”), and George Lopez (”The Gorge Lopez Show”). Following the screening, actors from the film will join director Judy Hecht Dumontet for a Q&A. The film will open for a limited, three-night run at the Guild Cinema in Nob Hill, September 21 – 23. Synopsis: Falfurrias, New Mexico, is a tightly-knit community revolving around church, family, and fresh Mexican food – and not necessarily in that order. Isidor's Tortilla Heaven is the best restaurant in town, maybe even the world. But though his tortillas are scrumptious, his enchiladas divine, Isidor has never made a dime. Why? Falfurrias only has a population of 73. One Sunday, upon one of his famous, hand-made tortillas the face of Jesus Christ appears. It’s a miracle that threatens to turn this sleepy community upside down. (Running time: 94 min. NR) What: New Mexico Premier Screening of “Tortilla Heaven”, featuring a post-show Q&A with actors and director Judy Hecht Dumontet Admission: Free and open to the public. Seating is limited, and passes are available at the National Hispanic Cultural Center box office. Call (505) 246-2261 for information or to obtain passes.
