Screenings will be are free to the public.<\/p>\n<p>Peruvian filmmaker and artist, Daf-Collazos, producer Tolentino and her team have joined forces to create a film that chronicles the director\u2019s childhood as she walks through the building that once dominated her youth.<br \/>\nWhy would the memories of some old building from the past matter to an aspiring filmmaker and artist? The director spent part of her childhood playing in the hallways in Edificio Central where her father had an office. It mattered enough for her to throw in all of her resources and team up with another passionate actor\/producer Nathalie Tolentino.<\/p>\n<p>Edificio Central is narrated by Daf-Collazos, her father and of some of the people who lived and continue to live there\u2014and perhaps even the voices of ghosts of past decades.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was working with some other filmmakers in Peru looking for a unique topic for a new documentary and the idea for Edificio Central was brought to us by Diana [Daf-Collazos] who spent a lot of her childhood in the building,\u201d said Executive Producer Tolentino. \u201cEdificio Central is a collaborative effort produced with the team of DOCUPERU.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Edificio Central is located in Lima, Peru. \u201cI have a special connection with the Historical Center of Lima. I admire the colonial and modern architecture since it\u2019s the city I grew up in,\u201d Tolentino added. \u201cI have wonderful childhood memories of Downtown Lima.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There is no doubt that admirers of historical architecture will connect with Edificio Central\u2014\u201cbecause the film recaptures the connection we have with places that are meaningful in our lives regardless the beauty or decadence,\u201d she stated. \u201cThe film portrays the emotions and memories that stay with us throughout time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Edificio Central explores one woman\u2019s past as she walks through the hallways once her playground. She strolls through the building, floor by floor, and recalls the love songs that once echoed through the staircases, where opportunity to fall in love was inevitable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCertainly worthy of watching. As a visual artist I love the still shots. As a lover of history I enjoyed her story,\u201d said Artist Salvador Alvarez<\/p>\n<p>Edificio Central is narrated in Spanish with English subtitles and it\u2019s a film that art lovers, historians and architectural aficionados will find a special connection.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Festival:<\/strong><br \/>\nTAFFNY represents the rich diversity of the cultures, languages and stories of North America, Central America, and South America along with their associated islands.<\/p>\n<p>The festival is a project of the Division of Interdisciplinary Studies at the Center for Worker Education of City College of New York (The City University of New York &#8211; CUNY), in collaboration with the National Museum of the American Indian.
