Sergio, si esperas por los burócratas, los de Tallahasse o los del Miame Dade College, para que creen las posiblidades de hacer cine en Miami, pierdes el tiempo... Lo que se necesitaría es un Mercado del Film que ocurra paralelo e indendiente al Festival de Cine de Miami donde se compren y vendan peliculas ya terminadas o se vendan coproducciones de proyectos a filmar aqui o donde quiera... Cine latinomericano... Incluyendo al cubanoamericano... Pero con resonancia universal, no de ghetto... Para ser consumido en USA, España y Latinoam'erica y si son buenas, en el rersto de Europa... Crear un identidad-entidad para vender y/o organizar producciones nuestras... El Mercado del Film es fundamental (pero independiente) en Cannes y en Toronto y en Sundance... Y no hay que olvidar la Internet como fuente de financiamiento.
