ABOUT
The Film
As a kid you were swept up in the, “British Invasion” The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and Herman’s Hermits. On television your grandmother watched Mexican soap operas and you snickered and ridiculed her to your friends because she kept you from watching “Leave It To Beaver, The Andy Griffith Show and Bonanza.”
It was 1964. Assimilation was rampant in Mexican/American homes. Your parents named you Roberto but everyone knew you as Bobby. Speaking Spanish in the school system drew severe corporal punishment. Your parents and grandparents were prideful of their Mexican heritage but, because of the prejudice they experienced at the hands of bigots and racists the language and customs of that heritage was not passed on to their children.
