Join us for a film screening of Under the Same Moon (2007) and learn about the unique experiences of immigrant Americans. The film portrays a powerful and uplifting story about Carlitos, a young Mexican boy who travels across the border to search for his undocumented mother living and working in the U.S. The film illustrates how love requires sacrifice for the benefit of others and addresses the challenges faced by undocumented immigrants. The love between mother and son knows no boundaries. Grab your popcorn, settle in, and get ready to be transported to a mesmerizing tale of love and sacrifice.
