The Star and the Producer of the Hot New LGBT Film "Jose" !

JOSÉ is an incredicle film depicting the story of a working class young man's struggle to find himself. Rare and unique, the film shows what it means to be gay in Central America. It opens on January 31, 2020 at New York City's Quad Cinema, with national dates to follow, including Los Angeles, Miami and San Diego. It has been a hit in the festival circuit, featured at Amnesty International and in over 70 leading international festivals, winning multiple awards. José (played by our guest today, Enrique Salanic) lives with his mother (Ana Cecilia Mota) in Guatemala City, where they survive on her selling sandwiches at bus stops and with him working at a local restaurant. In this poor and sometimes dangerous country dominated by conservative Catholic and Evangelical Christian religion, living as an openly gay man is hard for José to imagine. His mother has never had a husband, and as her youngest and favorite son, on the edge of manhood at 19-years old, she is determined to hold on to him. Reserved and private, José fills his free moments playing with random hook ups arranged on his phone apps and meeting in clandestine sex houses. When he meets the attractive and gentle Luis (Manolo Herrera), a migrant from the rural Caribbean coast, an unexpected romance blooms with more emotion than José has ever felt. As he is thrust into new passion and pain he is pushed into never before self-reflection. Will his reluctance to take a leap of faith lead to happiness? Enrique and producer George F. Roberson are our special guests today. We will talk to them about the film itself, and also how the Trump administration banned Enrique from entering the US to promote it.
