Hugo Perez’s Documentary OMARA on Afro-Cuban Singer and cultural icon, Omara Portuondo is now playing in the 39th Miami Film Festival. The documentary will be streaming nationwide with in-person Miami screenings through March 13, 2022.
Toward the end of our 26-minute talk, I admit to feeling pressured to write something that does Hugo justice. In the simplest of words and from my sincere heart, this episode is a true candid talk. What a story and journey to the medium of film. So much grace across his insights, perceptiveness, and down to earth-ness. Hugo really rocks. Look out for him and do check out OMARA.
