A Day Without a Mexican

A Day Without a Mexican is directed by Sergio Arau with the participation of many satrs such as Yareli Arizmendi, John Getz and Maureen Flannigan. A thick fog surrounds California’s borders, communication beyond state lines is cut off, and the Mexicans disappear: workers, spouses, and business owners are missing. Cars are abandoned in the street, food is left cooking on the stove. We meet the wife of a musician who’s gone, a state Senator whose maid doesn’t show up for work, and a farm owner whose produce is ripe and unpicked.
