A.N.S.W.E.R. Film Screening Maquilapolis (City of Factories)
Tuesday, April 10, 7 pm A.N.S.W.E.R. Office: 1800 Argyle Ave, #400, LA
Join the ANSWER Coalition for a screening of \"Maquilapolis,\" a new documentary about Tijuana?s 800 maquiladoras and the women who work in them for poverty-level wages.
The filmmakers gave several women workers in Tijuana video cameras to make a record of their lives, giving the documentary the intimate feel of video diaries.
While ?Maquilapolis? shows that globalization gives corporations the freedom to move around the world seeking cheaper labor and more lax environmental regulations, it also shows that organized workers can successfully demand that the laws be enforced.
Plus: Report and slideshow from April 7 mass immigrant rights march in LA.
