Here’s more on the film:
Beyond El Barrio explores the rich, untold history of Indianapolis’ Latino community and the lasting impact of the city’s once-thriving Latino neighborhood – El Barrio. A vibrant community in the 1960s, El Barrio made profound cultural contributions to Indianapolis before being displaced by urban development. The documentary unearths the stories of the people who lived there, highlighting their legacy in shaping the city’s spirit and culture.
