We believe strongly in the interconnectedness of all living things, which has inspired us to take a stand.
Please donate to help raise awareness of the current refugee and immigrant crisis happening around the world and in our own country.
“When I Fall” is a paean to hope and overcoming adversity as it depicts an immigrant family walking a difficult path to freedom while working against the elements. Those elements can be as literal as the snow covering the ground and the fence the family must crawl through or as evocative the broken structure in our current society and how it fails to humanize refugees and immigrants, especially the children.
“We’re heartbroken thinking about all of the refugees and innocent people in our world who are experiencing war and watching their communities destroyed and people they love die. We are fortunate enough to be able to go home each night and feel safe and secure. They have to get up and walk to whatever country will take them in, while trying to keep their families alive. It puts the world into perspective. We just hope more people open their minds and hearts to the realities of what’s taking place,”
– Daniel Rodriguez
