De Nadie

I just saw Under the Same Moon and really enjoyed it, so De Nadie caught my attention. It's a documentary about illegal immigration. What made it interesting for me is that the movie focused on Central Americans trying to cross Mexico with the ultimate goal of making it to the US. Alarming. These people are raped, robbed, mutillated just trying to get to the Mexico/US border. The editing is rough and there are many typos in the subtitles, but there is something about this movie that makes you glad you watched it. I'm sitting here glaring at my Coach purse thinking of all of these people.

We are lucky.
