The second film is called Made in L.A. and is a documentary about some sweatshop laborers who come to realize that they are being exploited and successfully sue the clothing company that is mistreating them. I haven't seen this one, but the reviews are quite good. Here's the trailer:
The third movie is called Dying to Live and also appears to be a documentary, with a broader look at the border in general and lots of interviews with a diverse group of people.
The last film is a third documentary, Farmingville. After the attempted murder of two Mexican day laborers, in Farmingville, New York, two film makers move to town for a year to try to get the points of view of all the different people involved. Sounds interesting.
So, there it is. The discussion guide is designed to help create a conversation about these movies, what this says about our society and the role of Christians in this difficult question. If you've seen any of these movies drop me a note, I'd love to know what you thought of them.
I am a lover of indie and doc films! And this is a good idea. Matt, I like the way you think! :)
