This documentary features twelve women who speak candidly about their experiences with abortion. The women are doctors, subway workers, artists, activists, military personnel, teacher and students; they are Black, Latina, Jewish and White; they are mothers or child-free; they range in age from 19 to 54. Their stories weave together with the filmmaker's diary entries to present a compelling, moving and at times surprisingly funny 'dinner party' where the audience is invited to hear what women say behind closed doors about motherhood, medical technology, sex, spirituality, love, work, and their own bodies.

Filmed in Nuevo Leon, Mexico; Mission, Texas; and Shafter, California, this movie follows the life of a migrant community, primarily through the eyes of Elizabeth, whose wedding to Artemio concludes the documentary.

Carmen Castillo won a seat on the city council between shifts as a hotel housekeeper. Building a name for herself in local politics as she fought to unionize and, unsuccessfully, to raise the minimum hourly wage to $15 for all Providence, Rhode Island, hotel workers, Castillo infuriated her more corporate-minded constituents in Ward 9. This film tracks the story from her arrival in the U.S. from the Dominican Republic in the mid-1990s to her 2014 reelection bid, when she once again espouses a fiery progressive platform. And neither of her opponents proves shy about using her marginalized economic status and lack of formal higher education against her.

This documentary honors five mothers who have raised families and have effected broad-based social change as workers, activists, educators, leaders.

Through interviews with Latina survivors of sexual assault, professionals who work with them, and members of Philadelphia's Latinx community, this film provides insight into the complex issues around defining sexual abuse, understanding the impact, the intervention/healing process, and prevention in the Latinx community.

This film is an unprecedented and intimate look at the illegal and extremely dangerous journey of three Salvadoran women to the United States, through Mexican territory. Doña Ines, Maria, and Sandra, tired of the violence from their husbands and wanting to overcome poverty, decide to leave their families behind to travel to America -- with only thirty dollars in their pockets. During their harrowing journey, the three women encounter prostitution, slave trade, rape, kidnap, and even death, all in an unwavering quest for a better life.

The bordertown of Laredo, Texas hosts a celebration unlike any other. For 116 years, this Mexican American community has dedicated the month of February to honoring a man who never set foot in Laredo: George Washington. The highlight is a Colonial Ball in which mostly Mexican American debutantes are dressed as colonial heroines and presented as guests of Martha Washington. Las Marthas follows two of the girls--Laura Garza Hovel and Rosario Reyes--as they prepare for this extraordinary rite of passage. The film unveils layers of tradition as questions arise regarding the nature of borders, biculturalism, and the performance of identity.
