1:08 – Harvest of Empire is a documentary that examines the direct connection between the long history of U.S. intervention in Latin America and the immigration crisis we face today. Adapted from the landmark book written by journalist Juan Gonzalez (@juangon68), the film tells the story of an epic human saga that is largely unknown to the great majority of citizens in the U.S., but must become part of our national conversation about immigration.
