At the Movies: Cover/Age

On April 29 at 2pm PST / 5pm EST, the California Immigrant Policy Center, Center for Cultural Power, National Domestic Workers Alliance, United We Dream, and Working Films will host an online screening and discussion of
COVER/AGE.

The short documentary film by Set Hernandez Rongkilyo and the California Immigrant Policy Center examines the lack of healthcare access for undocumented immigrants in California and how two undocumented individuals are advocating to fight this exclusion. 

Set against the backdrop of California’s Health4All campaign, COVER/AGE follows two leaders who have been championing the immigrant health justice movement in the Golden State – an elderly caregiver who has spent over a decade taking care of senior citizens, in spite of being ineligible for the same services she provides, and a long-time
community advocate who has been organizing directly impacted people towards policy change at the intersection of immigrant, health, and gender justice.
