The Harvest/La Cosecha is now available on DVD

Every year there are more than 400,000 American children who are torn away from their friends, schools and homes to pick the food we all eat. Zulema, Perla and Victor labor as migrant farm workers, sacrificing their own childhoods to help their families survive. THE HARVEST/LA COSECHA profiles these three as they journey from the scorching heat of Texas’ onion fields to the winter snows of the Michigan apple orchards and back south to the humidity of Florida’s tomato fields to follow the harvest.

From the Producers of the Academy-Award® nominated film, WAR/DANCE, Executive Producer Eva Longoria and director U. Robert Romano, this award-winning documentary provides an intimate glimpse into the lives of these children who struggle to dream while working 12 – 14 hours a day, 7 days a week to feed America.

Winner of the Audience Award for Best Documentary at the San Antonio Film Festival, The Harvest/La Cosecha tells the story of 3 of the estimated 400,000 children in the US who leave behind their homes, schools, and friends to pick the food we all eat– without the protection of child labor laws.  The lives of these migrant farmworker children and their families is illuminated by the award winning filmmaker U Roberto Romano.  The filmmakers, including Executive Producer Eva Longoria, have been to Capitol Hill several times to show the film to members of Congress in support of the CARE act to change child labor laws to protect children working in agriculture.
