"Bienvenidos a Los Angeles" has been SHORTLISTED for Best Live Action Short Film in the 96th Academy Awards!

PLEASE CONSIDER A DONATION TO HELP US FUND THE PR CAMPAIGN!

We're raising funds for our robust PR campaign to help cinch the nomination. Any amount is greatly appreciated!

Academy members have voted, and out of 187 eligible films, "Bienvenidos a Los Angles" has made the SHORTLIST of 15 films that now vie for the nomination. Voting begins Jan. 11th, 2024 and lasts only a few days, so we're raising funds now.

It's incredibly gratifying to know that Elizabeth's immigration story resonates deeply with so many viewers. To have Academy voters recognize our film is an incredible testament to the power of cinema to tell meaningful stories.

To get this far is tremendous! We're so honored to be on a list that includes Wes Anderson, Pedro Almodovar and Alfonso Cuaron, John Travolta, Brittany Snow and Samantha Bee! The list is very impressive, and the competition will be fierce.

We so appreciate your donation. We would not be here today without the generosity of so many folks who have believed in this film & its message.

In gratitude,

Lisa & Team BALA
