Our film, La Americana (www.la-americana.com), is an award-winning documentary which follows a young Bolivian woman's journey to the U.S. to save her ailing daughter.

Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBxG5a0yqhM

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.

We're releasing the film on DVD and airing it on PBS later this year.
