Roger is a true example of “take your passion and make it happen” Listen today to hear how as a young boy in Panama, Roger would go to the movies where it was cool and dark and he become infatuated and in love with stories rich with possibilities. You’ll see his passion and feel his passion to bring films by artists of color with his film recommendations. Roger’s brilliant reviews make you feel like you are walking a new path with films we just might have missed.
