Bienvenidos a Los Angeles

It is a profound moving film. At first sight, a film about immigration. In essence, about people and their life decisions , always difficult, risky but essential.

It is a film about motherhood and laws and fears and decisions defining future.

But, more important, it is a beautiful crafted short film , in each aspect. The result - a profound exploration of a world who, so often, seems very far by us.

Three woman in a car . Their stories. A boy, son of one of them. The lost of job of a Nigerian lady who , for this fact, looks for help a mother, with the memory of her son.

Not a story but a great source of reflection. And this makes it a sort of experience for viewer.

This film should be required viewing for everyone making immigration decisions. It was the compelling story of basic human connections and the special relationships between mother and child. It was incredible how much character development was accomplished is a short. Each story came through and connected with the viewer. The timing is perfect as our country's elected leaders are making decisions that affect people, real people, real families with small children striving to make a better life. Kudos to the filmmaker for tackling this story and making it so very relatable to everyone who sees it.

It's a beautiful short film and I can't wait for the world to learn about this incredible and true story that definitely resonates with many, MANY people. Props to these amazing storytellers. From the writing. To the directing, to the cinematography, this film is worthy of being seen by everyone. It's relatable, engaging, and culturally relevant during a time where immigration is a contentious issue in the United States and around the world. The short film gives you a brief but deeply moving insight into how we are all connected, no matter where we are from or who we are, family, love, connection and opportunity are all human.
