We don’t agree in the smallness that says it’s ok for a stage full of political leaders, one of whom could end up being President of the United States, being silent when an American soldier is booed. We don’t believe in that.

La Cosecha - The Story of the Children Who Feed America
The film follows these children as they follow the crops they harvest, their lives governed by climate, demand, trade, and the greater economy. The verite footage of the children and their year of toil is augmented by the children having the chance to speak for themselves about their lives. Read more here.
