Que onda friends!

It’s a Natalie only episode!

In today’s episode, I share the impact movies have had on my life, and I have the pleasure of sitting down with filmmakers Marla Arreola, Marinthia Gutierrez and Nicolasa Ruiz whose lives have also been profoundly influenced by film. The work of these three remarkable women reached the prestigious Cannes Film Festival. Together, we discuss their journeys, the challenges they've faced, and how they're carving new paths in the TV and film industry and beyond!
