DESCRIPTION:The Hand That Feeds (88 min.) (2014) Directed by: Rachel Lears & Robin 
 Blotnick\nAt a popular bakery café, residents of New York’s Upper East 
 Side get bagels and coffee served with a smile 24 hours a day. But behind 
 the scenes, undocumented immigrant workers face sub-legal wages, dangerous 
 machinery, and abusive managers who will fire them for calling in sick. 
 Mild-mannered sandwich maker Mahoma López has never been interested in 
 politics, but in January 2012, he convinces a small group of his co-workers 
 to fight back.\n\n Risking deportation and the loss of their livelihood, 
 the workers team up with a diverse crew of innovative young organizers and 
 take the unusual step of forming their own independent union, launching 
 themselves on a journey that will test the limits of their resolve.
