‘La Guagua 47’ is a one-of-a-kind community cultural production that has engaged over 300 Philadelphia artists and volunteers in its creation and many more community members as cultural event participants. The film tells a universal story of migration, belonging, and finding home in one another: a young Latinx migrant arrives in Philadelphia feeling very alone. One day she discovers the iconic SEPTA 47 bus and embarks on a journey that changes her life.
The project’s artists include filmmaker Pedro Escárcega, choreographer Christina Castro-Tauser, songwriter, producer and creative director Alba Martínez, dancer and protagonist Ashley Rivera, muralist César Viveros, and lead media/creative partners and associate producers Alaitz Ruiz-Arteagoitia and Martin Alfaro.
SEPTA & AL DÍA partnered to create a multimedia, multilingual, content series focused on telling real life stories of its ridership called “Abordo SEPTA”. La Guagua 47 is the crown jewel of the Abordo SEPTA series.
