The real trailer for the short film Undocumented, which follows the story of a college student named Joel. Joel feels that he was given a bad hand of cards by not being born in America, but rather in Mexico, as he faces his belief of bad luck and misfortune. Through his life and current situations, he struggles to earn an education, help support his family financially, and take care of his younger brother, Emilio. All while hiding as an undocumented citizen in Los Angeles. His fate is contradicted when he meets a fellow student named Rosa, a quiet girl from Mexico continuing her education abroad in America, on her privileged fathers wishes. Her ideals about life and family prove to Joel that he doesnt have to look far for his own personal American dream. After a run in by the I.C.E. at work, Joels appreciation and courage declines before he receives a letter from the USCIS Citizenship and Immigration Services, that could change the course of his life as he knows it.

  • wouldn't the right people to applaud and celebrate be the ones that stay in their broken country and contribute towards solving its issues rather than fleeing? i'm tired of all the sob stories/self-entitlement/suppo­rt for people that enter my country illegally. also, give them an inch, they'll want a mile. give them a mile, they'll want five. give them california, they'll soon want oregon. california passed that absurd dream act and yet people still draw lines in the sand.

  • living in the usa is like living in a big prison

  • WW3

    USA vs THE WORLD

  • isn't this supposed to be a "found footage" film?

  • C SPAN “Black Republican Forum” Session 2 (begin at 11:30) Allen West said one of the 1986 caveats was to secure our borders and enforcement our laws, but haven’t happened. (We’re still talking about new amnesty like DREAM Act.) We can’t allow local cities to make sanctuary cities policies, because they will bring our inner city turf wars to epic proportions by bringing in the drug cartel and Columbian gangs. (Mexican Gangs don’t recognize our borders established by the Treaty of Guadalupe)

  • In November 2010, the unemployment rate was 9.8% with 15.1 million unemployed. (15.1 million/9.8%) = 154 million are able to work in the workforce. 11,941,812 (or 11.9 million) skilled jobs provided to illegal immigrants. GOOGLE “illegal immigration counters”, the 15.1 million unemployed could take the 11.9 million available jobs. The unemployment rate could be reduced to 2.1% {{15.1-11.9)/154}

    Fight for your Country; not each other!
