Cristina Ibarra is a New York based filmmaker with roots along the US/Mexico border. Latino Public Broadcasting, Paul Robeson Fund, and New York State Council for the Arts have all funded her work. She is a Rockefeller Fellow, a CPB/PBS Producer's Academy Fellow and a New York Foundation for the Arts Fellow. Her new script, Love & Monster Trucks, was selected for a staged reading by the Latino Producers' Academy and UCLA's Professional Screenwriting Program. It is about two high school friends cruising the intricate social landscape that shapes the U.S.-Mexico border in a narrative blending comics, drama and fantasy.
