Movie is very realistic and is based on reality of what is going on with immigrants.

Problematic
I think the actors did the best they could with bad writing, poorly-realized characters, and a limited budget. This film looks like it was shot on a phone. It is interesting that, for a film that seeks to humanize the immigrant experience, that one of the title cards at the very end refers to the characters as "illegal immigrants". I can understand some of the characters using that term in the context of the movie. I don't understand why the film team would use that term themselves. There is an important film somewhere in this title, but it appears rushed and not fully developed.
Powerful and insightful
This movie is very powerful and insightful.
It speaks to the Human aspect of immigration not just personal political views.
This is based on a true family however, I'm sure that there are many more families that have gone through this as well.
