Find "The Invisible Mexicans"



I've just viewed a documentary everyone should see. "The Invisible Mexicans of Deer Canyon" is an immigration film that brings the viewer into intimate contact with the struggle migrant workers face: their living conditions, the challenges of finding work, of supporting themselves and their families, the forces of intolerance and dismissal they must constantly contend with, and, finally the role of faith in seeing them through.
The film's just out and filmaker John Carlos Frey tells me they're lining up screenings in the West now, with showings in the East to follow.
Check the Hispanic American Village for a full review and check out "The Invisible Mexicans" web site for a trailer, more info and for upcoming screenings.
