¡ALAMBRISTA!

Directed by Robert M. Young
United States, 1977
Drama
  • 9797 minutes

Synopsis

Vivid and spare where other films about illegal immigration might sentimentalize, Young’s take on the subject is equal parts intimate character study and gripping road movie, a political work that never loses sight of the complex man at its center.
