Mission Statement

Project Enye's Creed: Life is too short not to know where you belong. Look to the Enye (ñ) inside to guide you home. You are not alone, even if you feel like it. Reject shame. Accept yourself. Trust your gut. Who you are IS good enough. Celebrate what makes you, YOU. Own your Enye (ñ) story and tell it. Your story matters. My story matters. Vulnerability is not a sign of weakness; it is a gateway to strength. Boldly walk the line between birthright and heritage with unwavering pride. We are 100% American. We are 100% Enye. Share this experience with the world, and see what happens. An Enye’s cultural awakening changes everything.

Description

An "Enye (ñ)" is a first generation American born Latino who has at least one parent from a Spanish speaking country.

Project Enye (ñ) is an unorthodox, multi-platform documentary project about first-generation American born Latinos that uses cultural and familial stories to build community among this large and growing population. Each week, the filmmakers pre-release these documentary stories to their audience via multiple formats, including 3-5 minute video micro-docs, podcasts, blogs, social media and live community presentations. Each micro-doc showcases intimate, unscripted Enye stories and commentary that touch on topics ranging from identity and language to family and assimilation. Although story details vary, each segment reveals commonalities about the shared Enye experience in America that collectively defines this generation one story at a time.
