IFC Center is proud to join with the International Puerto Rican Heritage Film Festival to present a special benefit screening of BROCHE DE ORO (dir. Raúl Marchand Sánchez), winner of the Best Feature Award at this year’s IPRHFF. The screening will raise money for hurricane relief in Puerto Rico, with all proceeds going to the Hispanic Federation’s Unidos fund.

Friends Rafael, Anselmo and Pablo run away from the strict retirement home where they live, to enjoy a weekend of fun and frolic. Their trip takes them to a beach in Piñones where Rafael’s grandson competes in a surfing contest. Together, the four of them have a day filled with laughs, love and camaraderie, in an adventure that unites three generations. BROCHE DE ORO celebrates the power of family and living life to the fullest.

Los amigos Rafael, Pablo y Anselmo escapan de un hogar de ancianos, y descubren que no hay edad para ser joven. Su viaje los lleva a la playa de Piñones, donde Carlos — el nieto de Rafael — participa en una competencia de surfing. Juntos viven un día lleno de aventuras, risas, amor y amistad que cambia la vida de todos y hace posible el reencuentro de tres generaciones. BROCHE DE ORO celebra la vida y los lazos familiares que nos unen.
