Latino immigrants and their northern exposure – “Under the Same Moon” (La Misma Luna)
Tagged: border, Lou Dobbs, NAFTA, Spanish-language
TO all the people who think that the illegal immigration debate is about electronic fences, NAFTA, Lou Dobbs and such, director Patricia Riggen and screenwriter Ligiah Villalobos offer a polite but emphatic rebuttal.
Immigration, say the women, is about survival. It’s about learning to be invisible. It’s about families. It’s about love.
That, Riggen says, was the insight she uncovered while leafing through Villalobos’ screenplay for “Under the Same Moon” (La Misma Luna), a Spanish-language drama about a Mexican mother who comes to work in Los Angeles, leaving behind her young son across the border.”*
