The International Latino Cultural Center of Chicago announced that the 36th Chicago Latino Film Festival will shift to a virtual format and will take place from September 18-27. The Festival was originally scheduled for April 16-30 at the AMC River East 21 Theatres, but was postponed on March 13th when Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot ordered all events of a 1,000 or more attendees to be canceled or postponed.  Festival organizers expect to show a significant number of the films already selected as part of this virtual experience; the full program, as well as ticketing information, will be announced in mid to late August. Plans are also being hashed out for potential live and pre-taped virtual Q&As with select filmmakers. For updates, visit www.chicagolatinofilmfestival.org.
