COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Good documentary submitted by Xris on November 11, 2020, 5:55pm I read the book first, and this movie was a good supplement. I liked how a camera crew was able to go to the Phillipines to film his mother and half-siblings, even though he couldn't. If you want to learn more about immigration, this is a good start. :)
