Synopsis:
This video follows the lives of four Mexican women and their families whose undocumented husbands and partners, as workers at the World Trade Center, lost their lives in the tragic events of 9/11. Shot in New York and Mexico, it traces the personal, social, and economic repercussions of this act of terrorism on their lives. From the futile search and grieving for their loved ones, to their illegal status and uncertain future, the video offers an intimate look at human survival. As their stories unfold, it becomes apparent that while these immigrants have come to the U.S. to work in order to provide a better future for their families, they are also making a valuable contribution to American society.
