La Americana — The Film

Our film, La Americana, is an award-winning documentary that follows a young Bolivian woman’s journey to the U.S. to save her ailing daughter.  Here is the trailer.

The movie puts a human face on the ways in which immigration policies affect families on both sides of the border. The film screened at festivals worldwide and is used by major organizations and universities to engage audiences around immigrant rights and immigration reform. The film is being released on DVD and will be aired on PBS later this year.
