generation ñ : a bilingual bicultural Latino podcast

Part abandoned amusement park, part roadside haunted house, part Sid & Marty Kroft Supershow , part working video store and palace of wonders - there’s no moviegoing experience in America quite like what Nayib Estefan is doing with the Nite Owl Theater (which is really a cinema) - but theater might be the right name for it.

With the projectionist as DJ, with the amazingly immersive Experience that he’s created around watching a movie - if you love cinema and you love repertory screenings and you love to be surrounded by Films in an exciting/creative/fun way with great attention to detail, with tremendous love of process and intent but still with a terrific sense of fun you owe yourself to check out Nite owl Theater in the Design District and to listen to this podcast and interview with Nayib Estefan and Eric Zaldivar would been involved with this fantastic creation and gift to moviegoers for a few years now.

Eric is an actor ,writer and director living in LA, who makes some of the films that show prior to the to the movies at Nite Owl and Nayib is the impresario and mastermind behind what has to be one of the most creative moviegoing experiences in the United States.

Miami deserves this kind of thinking, this kind of cinema, this kind of attention to doing something new and exciting - it's time to celebrate that it's here.

I’ve been begging him to be on this podcast since I first started attending his Secret Celluloid Society screenings at different venues around town but now with the opening of his own official space in the Design District I finally convinced Nayib to sit down with me for an interview. I spoke to him and Eric about cinema, about where the grindhouse means the art-house, about The Great Peanut Butter Conspiracy, renting movies with your Abuelo and what makes for a great cinematic experience. Nayib has created one most interesting things going in Miami and it was a thrill to get to talk about Nite Owl & Secret Celluloid Society - Movie Aficionados and lovers of what's great, Take Note!

She backs it up with some of the most creative videos being made - and she does it all with a Miami flavor so unique she stands with any of the artists who've made Miami part of their vibe.

We talked about her music and videos and her activism - she's very involved in the cause of raising awareness about lack of freedom in Cuba - and just talked about the act of balancing it all. Gen ñ founder Bill Teck was thrilled to talk to someone that talented, that smart and that unique - but who was also such a thoughtful artist, reinterpreting Miami and it's cultura in a whole new way. We think you'll really enjoy the talk - but we think you'll enjoy discovering this fantastic new artist even more. She's bringing a whole new dimension to Miami.
