Los Sures & Heat

Nitehawk Cinema

Heat (2025) depicts the lives of three women from LES public housing projects as they confront the implications of deepening public housing privatization and what 'home' truly signifies. In contrast, Diego Echeverria's 1984 documentary, Los Sures, explores a deprived New York City neighborhood, highlighting its struggles, cultural richness, and resilience in overcoming racial tensions and scarce resources.
