Immokalee, Florida, is at the heart of industrial agriculture in the United States. It also has the largest population of migrant farm workers in the state. These workers live in slave-like conditions: some are beaten, not given food or water, or not paid. Yet they continue to come from their homes in Mexico, Guatemala, and Haiti to earn money on these modern-day plantations. Visiting tomato fields, workers’ homes, carnivals, and churches, the documentary recounts the community’s struggle for farm workers’ rights. What ultimately emerges is a tale of persistent hope for a better life.
