Join us at The Frida Cinema for a special matinee screening of Mexican romantic classic Maclovia, presented by Alta Baja Market as part of their Rancho Gordo Encuentro Festival!
On a small Mexican island dwells a group of Indians who live in the traditional manner and who disdain outsiders. The beautiful Maclovia and the poverty-stricken Jose Maria are in love, but her father refuses to allow their marriage, or even any communication between them, due to Jose Maria’s lack of means.
As part of this special event, we will be offering General Admission tickets for $12 and a special Rancho Gordo VIP Lunch ticket that includes a full meal of Rancho Gordo goods from Alta Baja Market + admission to the film for $32!
