Raza Cósmica: A constellation of Latinx sci-fi cinema is now accepting film submissions! San Antonio’s annual showcase of sci-fi and speculative films by Latinx and BIPOC filmmakers returns October 9-11, 2025.
Launched by MonteVideo in 2021, the festival is the signature program in our ongoing efforts to support Latinx-themed independent film screenings for underserved communities via non-traditional venues.
Programming highlights from last year’s fourth edition included a live episode of Xicanx Versus Aliens with filmmakers Edwin Raul Oliva (A Haunting Across the Galaxy), Dylan Hensley (Somos Borderlands), and actor Alejandra Herrera (Itu Ninu, Roma), a special sneak preview of Sundance 2025 selection En Memoria by Raza Cósmica alum Roberto Fatal, and a stellar outdoor screening of Blue Beetle by Angel Manuel Soto.
