Created by contemporary artists Raven Chacon and Cristóbal Martínez, A Song Often Played on the Radio (2019) is a lyrical allegory that is mythic in scope. In the half-hour film seminal Chicano performance artist Guillermo Gómez-Peña and noted musician Nacha Mendez move through the past, present, and future of the borderlands and its indigenous people.
The film screening is followed by a Q&A with artist Raven Chacon.
