Mojados: Through the Night is an eye-opening documentary filmed over the course of ten days that
follows four men into the desperate world of illegal immigration. Alongside
Bear, Tiger, Handsome, and Old Man, director Tommy Davis takes a 120 mile
cross-desert journey that has been traveled innumerable times by nameless
immigrants who – like these four young migrants from Michoacan, Mexico – all
had the simple, American dream for a better future. Davis brings to life the
often unheard hopes and stories of these migrants as their dehydrated days
evading the U.S. Border Patrol turn into sub-zero nights filled with barbed
wire, brutal storms and the ever-present confrontation with death that is
reality for the tens of thousands of illegal immigrants who make a similar
journey into the United States every year. |
