RioGrandeGuardian Reviews The Wall

Our first, full review of the film

Three generations of family coming out of a manhole. A son worried for his father crossing the treacherous desert from Mexico into the United States. The mounting danger for federal agents on the border.

The issue comes to light in "The Wall" a new documentary about the construction of a fence along the U.S.-Mexico border filmed by New York native Ricardo Martinez.

News and Reviews of The Wall

Saturday the RioGrandeGuardian.com published a story about the recent developments with the border fence.
They mention The Wall, our July 17th screening at Cine El Rey and Guadalupe Theatre, and put a link to a short we just made.



Also McAllenTimes.com just put up a news piece about the film coming to McAllen and mention a few quotes from the director, Ricardo Martinez.

“My main motivation for doing this film was to start a dialog for the people to think what is our policy for immigration, what is the effect of this wall, what is the effect of building a giant structure like this” says Martinez, during a phone interview from New York city.
