Wendy Thompson-Marquez, a Peruvian who for eight years worked as an undocumented nanny, on Thursday in Washington presented her documentary "Harvest of Empire," which shows the human side of the crisis of undocumented immigrants in the United States.

In an interview with Efe, Thompson-Marquez said the film seeks to provide the "historical context" for the Latino presence in the United States and to contribute to the debate on immigration reform.

"Harvest of Empire: The Untold Story of Latinos in America" is based on a book by New York Daily News columnist Juan Gonzalez.
