Director Lizette Barrera
HBO-licensed. Isabella is twelve years old and Puerto Rican — and she is proud of the arroz con leche her grandmother makes for Thanksgiving. When she brings it to school and nobody eats it, something shifts inside her. A warm, quietly powerful short film about food, culture, belonging, and the courage it takes to be yourself. IMDb 7.4.
