This DVD is a profound look at the human face of the migrant. It explores who these people are, why they leave their homes and what they face in their journey. Drawing on the insights of photographers, theologians, church and congressional leaders, activists, musicians and the immigrants themselves, this film explores the places of conflict, pain and hope along the US-Mexico border. It is a reflection on the human struggle for a more dignified life and the search to find God in the midst of it all.

This video reveals the burning truth in once-secret corporate documents: the story of a $62 billion global corporation and powerful new footage from Eastern Europe and Asia, like girls handing out free Marlboros to boys in Vietnam.

Produced and directed by Kelly Anderson and Tami Gold.

Depicted is the common experience of all immigrant groups: how does one participate fully in the larger North American life and at the same time preserve one's heritage, values and life-style? Muslims are portrayed as they span a wide spectrum of self-perceptions, ranging from the orthodox traditionalists to the self-critical liberals.
