Keep on the Look-Out for A New Film: Paraiso Travel

An article in Time Magazine says that a new Colombian film Paraiso Travel "should be watched by any American who has ever hired illegal immigrants -and, for that matter, any American who has ever shouted for their deportation. A group of weary Colombian migrants, having waded across a rushing river from Guatemala to Mexico, is violently set upon by the Maras, bloodthirsty gangbangers who prowl that border corridor. Men are shot, women are raped, children are terrorized. It’s an almost daily occurrence of migrant life in this hemisphere, and the film captures it with haunting authenticity. What’s almost as disturbing is that few if any good films have ever captured it until now."

It sounds like a movie that we will not want to miss!
