In light of the ongoing crises and violence we’re living through, we feel it’s important to uplift Trokas Duras, a beautiful short film by Jazmin Garcia, that demonstrates the power of art, narratives and filmmaking.

Trokas Duras is an homage, funded and supported by the National Day Laborer Organizing Network ( ), which has led efforts to improve the lives of day laborers, migrants and low-wage workers over decades, speaks to the beauty of day laborers’ life and traditions, it also attests to how their culture stands against the common tropes hurled at Latin American immigrants in the United States.

• Trokas Duras Texas Tour: A travelogue of ENTRE’s borderland tour with Jazmin Garcia, the director of the award-winning short TROKAS DURAS (2025). Jazmin, C, Monica and Remedios traveled with the film to San Juan, Harlingen, Laredo, Eagle Pass and San Antonio. Each screening featured a post-screening conversation with local grassroots organizers and leaders.

Just need to uplift ENTRE’s incredibly talented and amazing co-founder, ’s short film, La playa de la gente, was nominated for the Cine Festival Mesquite Award. All the flowers to you, queride 🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹

SUMMARY: On August 31, 2024, ENTRE Film Center & Regional Archive hosted its first Boca Chica, Corazón Grande Beach Happening, Playa de Memorias, a community event aimed at uplifting and activating the place we love, adore and are fighting for. Playa de Memorias was a free offering to our community that featured an art installation in partnership with La Tijera and led by Nansi Guevara, antojitos curated by Luna Vela of Neighborhood Molino and free roundtrip transport from the 77 Flea Market in Brownsville to Boca Chica Beach.

ENTRE aims to raise the visibility of Boca Chica Beach, a humble yet deeply historical coastline that reaches the mouth of the Rio Grande River. Boca Chica Beach has long served as a community beach and sanctuary. Now, this is all at risk of erasure with the ongoing development of private corporations that continue to harm this fragile ecosystem and restrict access to a federal state park and public land.

Filmed, recorded, edited, and colored by C. Diaz and co-produced by Monica A. Sosa & all the amazing ENTRE fam that came through xoxoxoxo
