FROM THE BORDERLANDS TO THE ROOTS
Punto de Inflexión (SLC)
10-12 Apr 2025 — 7:30 pm
From the Borderlands to the Roots (2023) is a piece inspired by (but not limited to) the Latinx identity and immigrant experience. This is an homage to the cultural heritage of those who make this country function and are undervalued and almost invisible, laborers and working-class immigrants. Borderlands is possible in collaboration and thanks to the RDT Link Series.

The alert for cyclones is issued in the Mayan language. She, unable to communicate with others, tries to survive a hurricane without anyone’s help. Will she survive?
