On the Divide

4/9 7:00pm Q&A filmmakers Leah Galant and Maya Cueva

On the Divide follows the story of three Latinx people living in McAllen, Texas, who—despite their views—are connected by the most unexpected of places: the last abortion clinic on the U.S./Mexico border. As threats to the clinic and their personal safety mount, these three are forced to make decisions they never could have previously imagined. Directed by Creative Culture alums Maya Cueva and Leah Galant, “On the Divide tells a vital story, so important to where we are today as a nation” (Christopher Llewellyn Reed, Hammer to Nail).

"Co-writers/directors Leah Galant and Maya Cueva present real and insightful messages from people who have something uplifting to share"
Sabina Dana Plasse, Film Threat
