Which Way Home

Dir(s): Rebecca Cammisa

Program: World Showcase

Run Time: 82 | USA  | Language: (Subtitled in English) Spanish 


Each year, thousands of people in Latin America risk their lives to make the long journey north through Mexico in search of a better life in the United States. Many are forced to leave their families behind, hoping that one day they can either return with new-found wealth or bring their families to join them. Rebecca Cammisa's enlightening and heart-wrenching film follows three unaccompanied children as they make the dangerous and demanding trek through Latin America to the US. As the children meet all manner of challenges along the way, they are awaited by their anxious parents who themselves have faced an arduous journey in establishing a new life for their families in the land of opportunity. Award-winning director Cammisa brings a compassionate eye to this thoughtful portrait of the journey to achieve the American dream.

Co-presented with Mayworks Festival of Working People and the Arts.
