Luis Valdovino

Luis Valdovino is part of a wave of Latino videomakers creating works that testify to the experiences of Latino Americans in confronting categorical discrimination on the basis of language and culture. With the viewpoint of an insider, Valdovino raises difficult issues of racism and exclusion in our supposedly “democratic” society, showing the injustice and hypocrisy of the American Dream when it means being over-worked and under-paid, exploited, and unrecognized in the land of opportunity.
