Set in Los Angeles, the film follows immigrant janitorial workers organizing for fair wages and basic rights, foregrounding the intersection of work, migration, and identity within the city’s social fabric.This screening invites the viewer to reflect on how cinema can give visibility to lived struggles while remaining intimate and human.

At El Cine we believe film education begins at the cinema and through conversations.

El Cine is a space for anyone who is seeking to learn more about different cultures, about the human experience, about themselves.Alexis Garcia - Los Angeles based filmmaker Alexis C.
