As part of the Lincoln Center Visionary Artist series celebrating the multi-faceted and extraordinary Grammy Award–winning musician, activist, and actor Rubén Blades, Lincoln Center presents Blades’s 1985 acting debut in Leon Ichaso’s Crossover Dreams. Blades stars as an up-and-coming salsa singer with dreams of hitting the big time in this much-adored musical comedy that received widespread acclaim. The film screening will be followed by an audience Q&A with Crossover Dreams producer and co-writer Manuel Arce; and the film will be shown on Arce's personal 16mm print.
