just watched “entre nos”. it’s the story of a woman who moves from colombia with her two children to join her husband in the united states (nyc) – however, shortly into the film, he leaves them for miami. she then faces unemployment, homelessness and trying to make any sort of ends in a foreign country where she can’t speak the language. the writer and director actually made the film based on her own mother’s experiences. couldn’t help but draw comparisons to my own immigrant-supermom (though empanadas –> eggrolls). tender, touching and inspiring.
