San Antonio is a major city in south-central Texas with a rich colonial heritage. The Alamo, an 18th-century Spanish mission preserved as a museum, marks an infamous 1836 battle for Texan independence from Mexico. Following the San Antonio River, the miles-long River Walk is a landmark pedestrian promenade lined with cafes and shops. HemisFair Park’s 750-ft. Tower of the Americas overlooks the city.
El abuelo (2008)
The smoky voice and lush words of young San Antonio teacher and poet, Joe Jimenez, guides the viewer through a snapshot of his early life. Preconceived notions are challenged as we experience Jimenez, his body covered in gang tattoos, methodically ironing his clothes (a domestic action often thought of as 'women's work') while speaking of his love for another man: his 'first vato.'
