Shot in the cold month of January, this film focuses on the growing Latino population in post-Katrina New Orleans. Largely ignored by mainstream media, this film addresses not only the Latino reconstruction contribution of N O L A, but also the difficulties many Latino workers face in the recovering city. Issues such as Black/Brown relationships, racial tensions, racism, wage-theft, police brutality, worker exploitation, on-job injuries, worker organizing and resistance, and cultural assimilation are discussed in the film.
