I am a documentary filmmaker planning a documentary for PBS about the experiences of Dominican immigrants in NYC.
If you or anyone you know has a story to share, please contact me.
The purpose of this documentary is to share with the general audiences a few of the untold stories behind immigrant lives. As an immigrant myself (Argentino), I feel Americans know very little about us and it is important to tell our stories - of migration, adaptation, nostalgia, pain, joy, the whole spectrum - in our own voices.
The one-hour film will tell the stories of three individuals. The Dominican stories will be the first of a series of four documentaries to be produced in the next three years.
I am particularly interested in stories related to water (the dangerous voyage to PR, Hombres Ranas living in NYC, fishermen, etc.), but am eager to learn about the many other stories out there.
If you or anyone you know have a story to share, and would be interested in sharing this story in professionally produced documentary for Public Television, please let me know and we'll make arrangements to speak (English o Espa?ol).
Many thanks and I look forward to hearing from you!
