Selena y Los Dinos

Matt Roush says...

Her life may have been short, but Selena Quintanilla-Pérez‘s impact on the music scene continues to resonate. A documentary, executive produced by her siblings and former band members A.B. and Suzette, traces the career of the “Queen of Tejano music” from her start performing with her family at quinceañeras to her peak, selling out stadiums. Selena’s life was tragically cut short at the age of 23 in 1995 when she was shot and killed by a woman who managed her boutiques. The film celebrates her legacy through footage from the family’s archive, including never-before-seen home videos. “I can’t wait for a global audience to experience the magic, heart, and community that Selena gave to all of us,” says director Isabel Castro.
