Marie Luisa interviews for her green card, with her husband, Jorge , by her side, in director Luis Fernando Puente's "I Have No More Tears, and I Must Cry," an official selection in the short-film program of the 2023 Sundance Film Festival.Writer-director Luis Fernando Puente found inspiration for his Sundance Film Festival debut film close to home — from his wife, Lizde Arias.
“When I told people I’m gonna make a move about an interview, it [didn’t] sound like much,” Puente said. “In reality, to be able to portray a feeling of tension and anxiety was a challenge.” “What the immigration process is like nowadays, it’s complicated. It’s a very long process,” Puente said. One of the challenges of making his short film was that he filmed close to home, in Orem. The job of recreating a USCIS office was tricky, he said, because “there’s not a lot of places that have that old look to them that are available for people to film.”
