A group of undocumented Mexican immigrants work long hours six days a week, and then savor their day of rest on Sundays on the soccer fields of Brooklyn.
“While realistically exploring the long and hard days of an immigrant community, On the Seventh Day still finds the spaces in between where joy and hope triumph.”
The movie should be required viewing for every politician in America. It's a gentle but clear-eyed reminder of the way things are, for so very many of us.
