Alambrista and the U.S.-Mexico Border Film, Music, and Stories of Undocumented Immigrants

The critically acclaimed 110-minute film "Alambrista" (1977) depicts the harsh realities of Mexican life on both sides of the border. For this release, a group of scholars has packaged a new director's cut of the film with a book of essays devoted to immigration and the U.S.-Mexican borderlands and an enhanced CD of the sound track.
