Some call the survival of La Gaceta newspaper, a miracle at a time when print journalism is considered an endangered species. La Gaceta’s roots stem from political refugees, a strong immigrant past... cigars... romance and rumors all creating an incredible perspective into a century of Hispanic history and culture in Tampa. This film, La Gaceta The Documentary: 100 years and 3 Generations Behind America’s Only Trilingual Newspaper, goes behind-the-scenes to chronicle the stories and personalities of our nation’s only trilingual newspaper (Spanish, Italian and English). It’s a love story following three generations of the Manteiga family business... Tampa’s minority community and stories they’ve struggled to publish and save for one hundred years.
