THE HARVEST/LA COSECHA
Shine Global is very pleased to announce that THE HARVEST/LA COSECHA will be screening on the evening of Wednesday, June 22nd at the San Antonio Film Festival. Now in its 16th year, the San Antonio Film Festival — formerly The San Antonio Underground Film Festival — is held annually in June at the Instituto Cultural de Mexico in San Antonio with the mission to serve as an accessible and inclusive platform for artists in the category of cinema and provide cinematic culture to a diverse audience. The San Antonio Film Festival showcases film from around the world while nurturing, fostering, and developing filmmakers of all ages.
THE HARVEST/LA COSECHA tells the story of 3 of the estimated 400,000 children who leave behind their homes, friends, and schools to travel from state to state and crop to crop picking the food we all eat. They work in brutally hot temperatures and are exposed to pesticides in order to help their families survive — all without the protection of child labor laws.
We hope you can join Director U Roberto Romano and Executive Producer Susan MacLaury for the screening and a post-screening Q&A.
