Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

I learn America. Why? We need to understand first what America is, it is a country of multiculture and multinational. Who is American? Everyone and nobody as everyone can be traced back to some other nationality. The story of this documentary is about kids who came to united states for a better life, for their family and for their life. Why it is interesting to watch for me? Because I just started living here and I feel the words that came out of these children voice. They miss their home, they work hard and they have problems with their documents. Some love to play, some to study further; some face marriage as obstacle, some money, some loneliness. A genuine view of the American Dream of 2nd generation of Immigrants.

I just attended a screening of this at the Nantucket Film Festival and had a chance to meet 3 of the students featured in the movie. It is by far the best film I've seen at this year's festival.The film portrays many immigrant students but concentrates on several who are from Burma (Myanmar), the Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Pakistan and Poland. The film gives a look at their academic, social, and family life switching back and forth between each. The film gives a great look at how immigrants struggle to fit in and some of the culture shock that can occur.Given the subject matter being in the spotlight in US politics at this time, this film will shed light on the subject in more ways than the news media is able to. I predict this film will be a strong contender for the "Best Documentary" Academy Award.
