Now in its 26th year, the San Diego UnderSea Film Exhibition (SDUFEX) is the longest-running film festival dedicated exclusively to underwater films. This year’s screenings will take place in person over two nights at San Diego’s Qualcomm Hall, drawing more than 1,000 attendees, and will be followed by a virtual showcase featuring selected films available to audiences worldwide. The first SDUFEX was held in 2000, born from a small group of passionate divers who met at Chuck Nicklin’s dive shop to exchange tips on filming and editing underwater footage. Over the past quarter-century, it has grown into the world’s most prestigious celebration of underwater cinematography. Come dive into an unforgettable cinematic experience at the 26th SDUFEX!

Born in Riverside, Calif., to Mexican parents, Cornejo epitomizes the modern música mexicana artist. He has embraced the traditional instruments, including the requinto and other acoustic guitars, that have long powered the regional Mexican sound, but has also given the enduring genre an alternative edge, incorporating electric guitars and darker, emo-like lyrics for a sad sierreño approach that has connected with his young and zealous fan base. “A lot of my influences came from regional Mexican, but it is hard to just identify as just that,” says Cornejo, who broke out in 2021 with his first single, “Está Dañada (She Is Damaged),” which landed him a No. 1 entry on Billboard’s Latin Songwriters chart dated Oct. 30, 2021, while also becoming the second regional Mexican song to appear on the all-genre Hot 100. “All the genres that I listen to, like country and rock, have inspired me. My sound is regional Mexican with a twist.” Visit: Ivan Cornejo Ivan Cornejo on Instagram and Facebook
