“Patricia Riggen, who directed “Under the Same Moon,” came to the United States for the very reason many Mexican citizens do: opportunity.

Here she found a culture that allowed her to become a filmmaker.

“I couldn’t see myself in the director’s shoes for a long time,” says Riggen, 37, who grew up in Guadalajara and now lives in Los Angeles.”*
