Documentary follows Mexican couple’s pursuit of American Dream – Intimidad

Mansfield native David Redmon had just finished making the documentary Mardi Gras: Made in China when he decided to visit one of his favorite countries, Mexico. On a previous trip to Reynosa, he had met a woman who made designer bags on her dirt floor, and he and his filmmaking partner, Ashley Sabin, thought she might be a good subject for a doc.

The woman had left, as had the bags. But Mr. Redmon and Ms. Sabin soon met a young couple, Cecy and Camillo. And a new project, Intimidad , was born.

It’s a disarmingly simple story: Man, woman and baby strive for a variation of the American Dream in Reynosa. They endure hardships, including a brief split, and soldier on. Intimidad is marked by a palpable sense of trust between filmmakers and subjects.”*
