Al Otro Lado (To the Other Side)
Almada introduces excerpts from her documentary, Al Otro Lado
(To the Other Side), on the desires and
struggles of Mexican immigrants as they hope for better lives by
crossing the border. Their experiences are rendered through the
corrido, the popular narrative song form, which becomes the mode
of expression through which migrants participate in their own form of
cultural belonging. Almada's comments
were recorded at The Scholar
& Feminist Conference XXXII, "Fashioning Citizenship: Gender and
Immigration," held on March 24, 2007 at Barnard College.
