THESE UNFORGIVING days, when a Mexican immigrant’s dream may founder in the desert or a day-labor line, Patricia Riggen can deal with the surreal, so-hip-it-hurts Times Square hotel where she is undertaking the business of movie marketing. “It’s not what I like to do, but I recognize how important it is for the movie,” Riggen says. She is fresh and new enough at this that her earnestness sounds genuine. The director’s first feature film sparked a studio bidding war at Sundance last year.
“Under the Same Moon” is a sentimental tale about a single Mexican mom who made the painful choice to leave her son behind to work illegally in Los Angeles as a housekeeper. She sends $300 home every month, and every Sunday at 10 a.m. they speak “” from a pay phone on an East Los Angeles corner to a pay phone in a poor Mexican town. The mostly Spanish-language film follows the 9-year-old boy as he undertakes an improbable odyssey across the border to attempt a reunion.”*
