“Problemista” had its world premiere at the 2023 SXSW Film Festival, where it received positive reviews for writer, director, producer, and star Julio Torres’ directorial vision, writing, comedy, and sharp social commentary on the immigrant experience. Torres was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about his experience making the film, how the strikes delayed the release, working opposite the brilliant Academy Award-winning actress Tilda Swinton, and more. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now playing in theaters from A24. Thank you, and enjoy!
