Title: One of the few movies that changed my life
Product review: This movie is so moving and so provocative that I have yet to see a movie this good since I saw this one in 1998. Riker uses the techniques of neo-realist Italian cinema to tell 4 poigant stories concerning the lives of Latino immigrants. Each story focuses on characters of different ages and genders, but they share the same struggle to survive in New York's lower east side. There are fables, there are tragedies, but more importantly there is an endurance that the old man, the day-laborors, the seamstresses, and the couple put forth in a ghetto they call America.
