    IF YOU DARE WATCH THIS MOVIE. YOUR LIFE WILL BE CHANGED. YOU MUST WATCH THIS MOVIE WITH AN OPEN HEART/MIND. GET A FEELING/EMPATHY OF WHAT IT'S LIKE TO COME TO THIS COUNTRY AS AN IMMIGRANT AND WORK VERY HARD AND DO THE TYPE OF WORK THAT NO ONE ELSE WANTS TO DO, SUFFER THE HUMILIATIONS AND ABUSES THAT IMMIGRANTS EXPERIENCE AND DEAL WITH ALL OF THAT STRESS AND ABUSE AND HAVE NO LEGAL RECOURSE AND ALL BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT A LEGAL RESIDENT IN THIS COUNTRY. I MEAN AFTER ALL WE ARE ALL HUMAN AND THE ONLY ORIGINAL AMERICANS IN USA WERE THE NATIVE AMERICAN INDIANS. SO WE HAVE ALL IMMIGRATED FROM OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD.....SO WHY CAN'T OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME OPPORTUNITY???? JUST WATCH AND OPEN YOUR MIND/HEART AND LEARN SOMETHING. AWESOME PERFORMANCES BY KATE DEL CASTILLO, EUGENIO DELBEZ AND OF COURSE THE BOY-ADRIAN ALONSO (WHO WAS THE LITTLE BOY IN ZORRO 2 MOVIE). ALSO SEE ESL-KUNO BECKER FILM

    We thought this was a wonderful, touching movie. The young actor, Adrian Alonso, was marvelous in his part. All very well done.
