"Under The Same Moon"

Under The Same Moon is about a young mom that cross the border to come to Los Angeles and give her song a better life, like send him money for her mom and her son. She would always called her son every Sunday morning to check if he was okay or need it something. She would work hard, and so would her son, to take care of his grandma. Also, the boy's uncle and aunt, the side of his dad, had said he would take him when his grandma would pass away. He would never go with them because he did not like them at all, and his grandma said not to worry because he would always stay wit her. The his grandma die, he had to leave and cross the border because he wanted to be with his mother in L.A. The things got risky because he was scare, after crossing the border, he met a man and he decided to travel with him, to not stay alone. He helped the little boy to find his mother, but it was hard. After his mother found out that her mother passed away, she got scare because no one knew where Carlitos was at, she decided to go back to Mexico, but her friends told her not to, that he probably cross the border already to wait for a syn. The man that Carlitos was traveling with got coat by the cops, but the man told him to run, to look for his mom. He did and he found the place from where his mother always called him every Sunday. And there she was standing across the other street and they were both happy and crying. The light change and finally they were bother together.

This movie is very important and maybe for other people as well. This movie talks about how immigrate people go through and how they suffer as well not having their love once. This movie is important because is tell a story about how a mom comes to Los Angeles so she can send movie to her son and won't suffer as much with her mother. She was not able to take his with her and we all Latin people know what they go through.

I can not compare this to another movie because I have not seen a similar movie to this one. I would like I see other movie with the same situation because I know what the latin people go through. They have to sacrifice what they can to bring money home and keep their children fed.

I understand many thing from this movie because my family when through this. My father had to come to Los Angeles as well because he need it a job and had to keep us fed. He made money, saved some money as well so we could of been able to come to Los Angeles and also we became citizens because of my father. We Latin people go through a lot to survive this world. And that's what this woman did for her child, work hard and at the end he got her chance of being with her son./div>
