When Antonio receives improper care from his doctor and loses his sight, his sister puts her life on hold and moves to Texas to take care of him full time. A story of the generational history of caretaking in an immigrant Mexican family – and the weight, love and breaking points of familial sacrifice. This is a documentary film I made of my mother, uncle, and grandparents.
