Summary

Over a thousand immigrant workers from the highland of Maya community of Jacaltenango, Guatemala live and work in Jupiter, Florida, a costal resort town. The two towns are thousands of miles apart. Brother Towns/Pueblos Hermanos, filmed in both Guatemala and the U.S., chronicles how and why people migrate across borders, how people make and remake their communities when they travel far from home, and how people maintain families despite their travel. Brother Towns/Pueblos Hermanos is story of local and international controversy. News of undocumented immigrants is familiar in nearly every community across the U.S., and citizens must choose how they respond to this issue. Our story includes voices of those opposed to undocumented immigrants as well as advocates helping migrants who seek work and hope, whether documented or not.
