Hennessy V.S celebrated the premiere of the Cesar Chavez biopic film at the Hotel Roosevelt in Los Angeles.
The film was directed by Diego Luna and stars acclaimed actor Michael Peña as Chavez, America Ferrara as Helen Chavez and Rosario Dawson as Dolores Huerta. ‘Cesar Chavez’ won the Audience Award at the SXSW Festival and opens nationwide Friday March 28th.
The world of Latin entertainment came together for the official premiere party to celebrate Chavez’s Never stop. Never settle. life.
Chronicling the birth of a modern American labor movement, ‘Cesar Chavez’ tells the story of the famed civil rights leader and labor organizer torn between his duties as a husband and father and his commitment to securing a living wage for farm workers.
Passionate but soft-spoken, Chavez embraced non-violence as he battled greed and prejudice in his struggle to bring dignity to people. Chavez inspired millions of Americans from all walks of life who never worked on a farm to fight for social justice. His triumphant journey is a remarkable testament to the power of one individual’s ability to change the world.
Celebrity guests at the Hennessy V.S. celebration included Rosario Dawson, America Ferrera, and Gabriel Mann who showed their support for Mexican director, Diego Luna on his first directing role in an English-language film.
