- This story of another Los Angeles - the Los Angeles that was not the paradise it was advertised to be - is told in this feature-length documentary through the compelling voices and stories of ethnically diverse elders who experienced what it was like to grow up with the many challenges and obstacles facing them. But they also tell their stories of resilience, hope and triumph, even as thousands among them suffered discrimination, prejudice and even mass deportation, or as in the case of Japanese-Americans, were taken away by decree and interned in distant camps without just cause. Stories from Another Los Angeles reveals a fascinating, fuller and ultimately richer story behind the rise of this great world city.
- At a crossroads, American filmmaker Walter Dominguez embarks on a life-changing quest to uncover mysteries in the life of his saintly Mexican-born grandfather, Reverend Emilio Hernandez, and to fulfill his grandfather's dying wish to locate his long lost family of origin. Traveling through California, Texas and Mexico, Walter discovers Emilio's involvement with courageous Mexican and American revolutionaries fighting for social justice in tragically oppressed Mexico. His search finally leads him to his grandfather's family in Mexico, and redemption for himself.
