Brother Towns, by Pueblos Hermanos, is a documentary about facing the challenges and benefits associated with immigration.  The film treats the topic from the perspectives of two towns, one in Guatemala, one in Florida, illustrating what it’s like – and why it becomes necessary – to uproot and travel to a distant place. 
The movie will be presented by John Gutterman from the Advocates for Human Rights.   Discussion and resource sharing will follow.
Family and friends are welcome.  Light refreshments will be served.
Please RSVP to arunchey@themlc.org with the number of persons in your party.
