Harvest of Empire plot

A documentary that shows the direct connection between the long history of US interventions in Latin America and the immigration crisis we face today. From the territorial expansionist policies that destroyed the fledgling economies of Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Cuba, to the covert operations that established oppressive military regimes in the Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Nicaragua, and El Salvador, Harvest of Empire offers an unflinching look at the origins of the growing Latino presence in the United States. Based on journalist Juan Gonzalez's landmark book, the film tells the story of an epic human saga largely unknown to the vast majority of American citizens.
