Sunday, February 8th, the 31st CineFestival hosted the Ecological Celebration by opening the gates to the community garden named Jardin Mayahuel. It was the ECO Celebration after the viewing of Environmental Films at the CineFestival ’09.
The community around the area and throughout San Antonio, including tourists, became amazed how a forgotten garden was redeveloped to make more space and room to tour the garden. One of the Co-Directors of CineFestival, Victor Payan, had his mother, Mrs. Payan, flown into San Antonio from San Diego, CA.
