series ¡Sí Se Puede! Pioneers of Chicano Cinema
Directed by Gregory Nava | 1983
With Zaide Silvia Gutiérrez, David Villalpando, Ernesto Gómez Cruz
An indigenous brother and sister (Villalpando and Gutiérrez) escape political violence in their native Guatemala—but discover new hardships as they try to make a life for themselves in America. A landmark of independent filmmaking, this stunningly photographed work of magical realism is a groundbreaking look at the Latino immigrant experience and a profoundly moving reflection on the elusive nature of the American Dream.
