Backstreet to the American Dream, championed by Executive Producer Dolores Huerta and Jarritos, is an award-winning bilingual documentary examining race, labor, and economic survival in modern America.

Their parallel journeys expose who benefits, who struggles, and who remains invisible in today’s food economy.
