Mi Familia

Gregory Nava's novelistic epic traces the journey of a Mexican-American family across three generations, from the 1920s to the 1980s, as they put down roots in Los Angeles, face deportation, weather LAPD violence, strike out into the world, and, above all, endure. With overflowing sincerity and and a vibrant visual style, Nava crafts an openhearted, richly textured microcosm of the Southern California Chicano experience.
