DESCRIPTION:A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition Film Series\nMade in L.A. (Hecho en Los 
 Angeles)\n\na documentary about the immigrant workers' struggle in honor of 
 International Workers’ Day\n\nMade in L.A. traces the moving 
 transformation of three Latina garment workers on the fault lines of global 
 economic change who decide they must resist. Through a groundbreaking law 
 suit and consumer boycott, they fight to establish an important legal and 
 moral precedent holding an American retailer liable for the labor 
 conditions under which its products are manufactured. But more than this, 
 Made in LA provides an insider’s view into both the struggles of recent 
 immigrants and into the organizing process itself: the enthusiasm, 
 discouragement, hard-won victories and ultimate self-empowerment.\n\nAs 
 director Carracedo concludes: “These women’s struggle mattered not just 
 for its own sake but because it served as a catalyst for each of them, in 
 her own way, to stand up and say: ‘I exist. I have rights.’” 70 min., 
 2007, Spanish and English with bilingual subtitles. \n\n
