Children in No Man's Land


Check this new work coming out soon. Spearheaded by Anayansi Prado, producer of Maid in America, comes another promising work that reflects the struggle of DREAMers.

Please join me and my talented production team at the LA premiere screening of Children in No Man's Land as part of this year's Los Angeles Latino Film Festival.

Children In No Man's Land is a documentary that uncovers the current plight of the 100,000 unaccompanied minors entering the United States every year. This film gives this timely political debate about the U.S.-Mexico border a human face by exploring the story of Maria de Jesus (13) and her cousin Rene (12) as they attempt to cross the U.S./Mexico border alone to reunite with their mothers in the Midwest.

When: Sunday September 14th

Where: Egyptian Theater - 6712 Hollywood Boulevard, Hollywood, CA

Time: 3:30 p.m.
