“Companeras is a soaring tribute to a tenacious group of women proudly making their voices heard in a largely male dominated profession."

Norman Lear

"A beautiful sensitive film about Mariachi music and the dedicated Latinas who are defying generations of tradition by playing it with such fierce passion and talent. I could and do identify."

Vikki Carr

"A rich, textured documentary that explores the phenomenon of female mariachi and the sacrifices these women make to play their explosive, soul-stirring music."

Michael Brook, Artist, Producer, Composer
"An Inconvenient Truth"

“There’s as much drama behind the scenes as there is in the passionate music. An honest and complex exploration of what it means to be a “professional” musician. The vocal performances thrill.’

Hale Milgrim, former president, Capitol Records

"A beautifully realized music documentary that interweaves the daily struggles of these talented Latina musicians with remarkable concert performances."

Loretta Munoz, ASCAP
