"Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.”

25th Anniversary Edition: El Norte
Gregory Nava's movie about a brother and sister's journey from Guatemala to the US, El Norte, came out in 1984. The civil wars in Central America, the ensuing movement of people north to the US, and what initiated the "sanctuary movement" of the 1980's for Central American refugees and immigrants. This film helped many of us understand the lives of immigrants during that time. I think the film is work watching and would like to see it again.
