DVD -"The Other Side of Immigration"

A 55 min. DVD based on over 700 interviews with men and women living in the Mexican countryside, “The Other Side of Immigration” asks the questions,

  • why so many Mexicans leave home to work in the United States
  • what happens to the families and communities they leave behind.

 

Through an approach that is both subtle and thought-provoking, the film challenges audiences to imagine more creative and effective immigration policies.
