B.T.S.

BEHIND THE SCENES

held at the Houston Latino Film Festival

The Houston Latino Film Festival, which has featured hundreds of films from Latin America, Spain, Portugal, and the United States, is celebrating its 10-year anniversary. In honor of this milestone, we created an exhibition dedicated to the filmmakers and creators who bring films to life, both on and off screen.

“B.T.S. (Behind The Scenes)” is a visual and experiential exhibition that honors the craft, collaboration, and creative labor behind filmmaking, highlighting the people, process, and unseen moments that make cinema possible. The show brings together behind the scenes photography, video installations, set life environments, historical cinema archives, cartoon models, props, and production artifacts that highlight the collaborative labor behind film.

From March 12–16, 2025, audiences experienced more than 40 films, this exhibition, panel discussions, live music, and more.
