Mississippi Chicken
a visually compelling exposé of the hardships and tragedies of undocumented Latin American immigrants in a rural Mississippi poultry town.
"A scathing documentary about the plight of immigrant laborers recruited to the South to work in poultry factories...Mississippi Chicken is a wrenching look at what it's like at the bottom of the labor food chain. Shot on 8mm, the film has a gorgeous, saturated, old home-movie look that brings the heat of the southern summer to life on screen."- Kim Voynar, IndieWIRE
