Tijuana Tales: ‘Límite’ Pushes Boundaries at Coronado Film Fest

The Coronado Island Film Festival and Planet 9 Films are proud to present a screening of Límite, a short film by George Nicholas, at the Village Theater in Coronado.

Synopsis

Límite is a 40-minute film that follows Manuel, a 16-year-old living in Tijuana, Mexico, with his grandfather while his mom works in the United States. When he meets a girl, he sees an opportunity to assert his independence, but what he doesn’t know about her will push him to the limit.

“This powerful film sparks tough conversations, calling for humanity and compassion. It reveals the complexities of drug-related issues and youth involvement in cartels, urging against blanket judgment for real change, or at the very least awareness to ignite change,” says Merridee Book, CEO & Artistic Director.

Post-Screening Q&A

A Q&A will follow the screening with Cast Members Jorge Domínguez Cerdá (Manuel Sr.) and Carla Culebro (Maria), Director George Nicholas, Executive Producer John Cappetta, Producer Eliza Bonev, Associate Producer Carlos Carrillo, and Casting Director Isaac Brown.

VIP tickets are available and include a post-screening reception with the cast and crew at the Brigantine in Coronado. The reception includes a curated Mexican-inspired menu and a no-host bar.

See you there!

The “Límite” screening is on Thursday, August 8. Doors will open at 5:30 PM. The film begins at 6:10 PM.

Tickets can be purchased at CIFF’s website here.

Keep up to date with Coronado Island Film Festival through Instagram, X, and Facebook.

See you there, San Diego!
