Mexico | 2014 | 90 min. | Spanish with English subtitles

 

All of Me by first-time Mexican filmmaker Arturo González Villaseñor chronicles a group of women who stand by the train tracks near the Mexican town of La Patrona. Calling themselves "Las Patronas," they wait for a freight train full of illegal Latin American immigrants—on a perilous journey in pursuit of the dream of a better life in the USA—to pass by. They throw them water bottles and packages of food they cooked themselves and never miss a single train. Although poor themselves, the women understand the suffering of others.

 

Speakers: Representatives from the International Institute of New England and the Refugee & Immigrant Assistance Center.
