...AND THE EARTH DID NOT SWALLOW HIM DVD

Adapted from Tomas Rivera's acclaimed novel Y No Se Lo Trago La Tierra, this film is a haunting and powerful story about a young Mexican-American boy's coming of age amid the poverty and adversity he and his family face as migrant farm workers in the 1950s. Twelve-year-old Marcos hides under a house, recalling the fragmented, painful memories of his family's transient life the year before. A series of moving and simultaneously disturbing episodes unfold into a poignant story of inner strength and human values vs. blind faith. This film is by Severo Perez.
