PBS Broadcast Premiere of THE IN BETWEEN


THE IN BETWEEN
A film by Robie Flores
(USA/Mexico, 2024, 84 min. In Spanish and English with English and Spanish subtitles)

Following the death of her brother, director Robie Flores returns to her hometown Eagle Pass on the Texas-Mexico border, yearning to turn back time. Immersed in the unruly experiences of adolescence—quinceañeras, Selena, Rio Grande river excursions, teen makeovers, and beyond—she rediscovers the intricacies of the home her brother adored and she once overlooked. What emerges is a playful dance between a personal and collective coming-of-age portrait of borderland youth and Robie herself as she reclaims joy in the aftermath of grief.
