Explores the Latino cultural obsession with soccer within a non-soccer crazed society through the production of the short film, The Cup. Producing an artistically sound short film that I feel provided artistic growth. I will have the artists involved fill out a survey that I will use to evaluate the success of the project.
Marta's Cup used the Futbol craze in Latin America as a metaphor to delve deeper into the horrid plight of domestic abuse women in Latin America. Success was deemed achieved through the production of a sound short film that the project provided the filmmaker an artistic growth. The outcome was evaluated through one-one/phone interviews with the main characters.
