The Plaza Arts Center is thrilled to be selected as ‘Official Screening Partner’ of the Southern Circuit Tour of Independent Filmmakers for the 2024-2025 season.

The Southern Circuit is a program through South Arts, a non-profit regional arts organization that partners with the National Endowment for the Arts. First up in the film series, The Plaza is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with the film “Bulls and Saints.”

Bulls and Saints” is a film about an undocumented family deciding to return home. Little do they know, it will be the most difficult journey of their lives. Set between the backdrop of the rodeo rings of North Carolina and the spellbinding Mexican hometown they long for, “Bulls and Saints” is a love story of reverse migration, rebellion, and redemption. National Hispanic Heritage month is celebrated Sept. 15-Oct. 15 each year and is celebrated to recognize the contributions and influence of Hispanic Americans to the history, culture, and achievements of the United States.

Bulls and Saints” will premiere at The Plaza Sept. 25. There will be a reception at 6 p.m., the film will start at 7 p.m. and a Q&A will follow the film. Tickets are free but The Plaza requests reservations. Reserve a seat online at plazacenter.org. The FREE film series from the Southern Circuit Tour of Independent Filmmakers is FREE because of the partnership between The Plaza, Visit Eatonton, South Arts and The National Endowment for the Arts. The Plaza wants the community to come out and show support for this new endeavor.
