Summary:
"The Braceros Seasonal Farm Laborers Program was an agreement signed in 1942 between the U.S. and Mexican governments to cover wartime labor shortages in the United States. Between 1942 and 1964, almost 5 million Mexican workers worked in the U.S. under the Braceros Program. This short documentary recounts the story of these workers half a century later, as they struggle to right an injustice done to them so long ago"--Container.
