The Stuff That Dreams Are Made of - Documentary (2006)

This documentary made by a 17 year old student reveals the existence of two undocumented immigrant girls within an upscale high school environment and chronicles the political awakening of a group of students who get involved in the immigration reform movement as a result. The teenage "Dream Team" becomes a force not only in their community, but with political heavy hitters in Washington D.C. In its simple presentation of the issues and the devastating impact on the undocumented children who have grown up in the U.S., the film is a powerful and poignant tool in our education mission.
