Welcome back to our queer film retrospective, “A Gay Old Time.” In this week’s column, in recognition of Hispanic Heritage Month, we’re revisiting the 1993 Spanish-language buddy comedy Strawberry & Chocolate.
September is Hispanic Heritage Month in the United States, which celebrates the histories, cultures, and contributions of people in America that come from Latin America, the Caribbean, and other Hispanic regions. To join in the celebrations, this week we’ll be revisiting a movie from a Latin American country whose cinematic oeuvre is often overlooked, but which contains rich and fascinating histories.
We all are a collection of various small identities and descriptors that add up to make a whole being: our gender, our race, our nationality, our sexual orientation, our political alliances, our religion. Apart from informing our core values and beliefs, these factors also give us a sense of belonging. By being around others that share the same ideas, we create a community.
