This goal of this festival is to break the barriers of stereotypes and provoke the audience to challenge mainstream ideals of the Latino identity by showing, through film, that Latinos are defined by more than 20 Iberoamerican countries and come from all social and racial backgrounds.
Latino graphic artists are invited to participate in this event by submitting work for the Film Festival Poster Contest by 30 November 2005.
The contest is open to all artists.
All entries must be received by deadline (Wednesday, November 30, 2005 --5:00 p.m).
There is no limit to the number of entries submitted.

One of the most distinguished graphic designers working in Britain, Derek Birdsall, has been awarded the Prince Philip Designers Prize 2005.
The award recognises a 48-year career during which Birdsall has set the standard for book and magazine design.
His work ranges from iconic sixties magazines Nova and Town and his instantly recognisable Penguin book covers to the Church of England's Common Worship in 2000.
Birdsall saw off stiff competition from design engineer Alex Moulton and architect Edward Cullinan, as well as brand guru Michael Wolff, architect Zaha Hadid, structural engineer Cecil Balmond and automotive designer Peter Horbury.
Birdsall said he was 'gobsmacked' to win the award, especially in competition with disciplines such as architecture and engineering.
The Prince Philip Designers Prize was instigated by The Duke of Edinburgh, in 1959 and is organised annually by The Design Council.
The award is made to a British designer or design-team leader whose exemplary work has had an effect on the perception of design by the public, and on the status of designers in society.
