A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition Film Showing & Discussion
In honor of Int'l Women's Day
“Under the Same Moon” tells the parallel stories of nine-year-old Carlitos and his mother, Rosario. In the hopes of providing a better life for her son, Rosario crosses the border to the U.S. to find work, while her mother cares for Carlitos back in Mexico. The prospect of being separated indefinitely drives Carlitos to cross the border alone to find his mother. The film is a moving and realistic portrayal of the agony faced by immigrants, who must choose to leave their homes and children as the only option to provide for their families. Spanish with English subtitles, 2007, 106 min.
$6 donation (no one turned away for lack of funds)
