Our 2024 Royalty

In our inaugural year we crowned the Best Actor and Best Actress winners as King and Queen of the Festival.

 

Karina Carielo won best actress for the role in her film "Just Business Nothing Personal" which she also wrote and produced and was crowned Fiesta SATX Film Festival Queen.

 

Kalen Austin won Best Actor for the role in his film The Marathon which he also wrote and produced and was crowned Fiesta SATX Film Festival King.   

 

As King and Queen they were able to make appearances at some of the annual Fiesta San Antonio events around town during the eleven day festival representing the festival and their respective films. 

​

In 2025 we have taken a different approach.

Our candidates for Festival Royalty  will raise funding for the mission of the Lift Latinhearts Production Fund, a 501c3 organization.  The candidates who raise the most funds during a designated period of time, will be crowned the 2025 Festival King and Queen with those coming in second being crowned the Duke and Duchess. The Royal Court will represent the indie film entertainment industry throughout the year at citywide events, work on getting the new generations to seek careers in the film industry through education at colleges who offer film programs the ACCD and other colleges, and continue to raise funds through events for the mission of the Lift Latinhearts Production Fund.  The candidates for 2025 will be announced here.
