In a remarkable collaboration with the Hispanic Heritage Foundation, a heartwarming Mexican American sports drama titled “The Long Game” is set to grace the screens of the White House on April 9, just days before its official release on April 12. This special event highlights the inspiring journey of resilience portrayed in the film, capturing the essence of Mexican American heritage and triumph.
Based on the book “Mustang Miracle” by Humberto G. Garcia, “The Long Game” narrates the true story of five young Mexican American caddies who defy the odds by establishing their own golf course in the midst of South Texas brush country. Against all challenges, they emerge victorious by clinching the 1957 Texas State High School Golf Championship, showcasing the power of determination and resilience.
“We are thrilled to support ‘The Long Game’ and are grateful to the White House for making sure our American stories are being told and seen. This is why supporting inspirational, Latino-themed movies and companies like Mucho Mas telling our stories is important,” Antonio Tijerino, president and CEO of the Hispanic Heritage Foundation, was quoted by Variety. Directed and co-written by Julio Quintana, “The Long Game” features Jay Hernandez, Cheech Marin, and Julian Works.
