The same year and at the same festival Vargas was declared the winner of the 2007 HBO / NYILFF Short Film Competition for his screenplay titled Hispaniola. HBO awarded him 15,000 dollars to produce and direct the short in the Dominican Republic based on his screenplay.
The resulting short film, Hispaniola was showcased at the 2007 New York International Latino Film Festival and shown later that year on HBO on demand as part of Hispanic Heritage month, after which the film ran on other HBO channels for a year.
