Los Sures

Directed by Diego Echeverria

Diego Echeverria’s LOS SURES probes the residents of the Southside of Williamsburg, Brooklyn, pre-gentrification. Poverty, drugs, gang violence, crime, abandoned real estate, racial tension, single-parent homes, and inadequate local resources are the backbone of a complex portrait that also celebrates the vitality of this largely Puerto Rican and Dominican community, showing the strength of their culture, their creativity, and their determination to overcome a desperate situation. LOS SURES is newly restored and presented for the first time in over two decades.

A beautiful portrait celebrates the vitality of a largely Puerto Rican & Dominican community, showing the strength of culture, creativity, and determination to overcome a desperate situation in South Brooklyn of the 1980s.
