The Wetback

New Media  | 06 de abril de 2009  | Vistas: 75

A group of students from Universidad Francisco Marroquín present a three-act musical that describes the reality of immigrants to the United States and what could happen when they return home. The story describes what happens when a group of immigrants returns to Guatemala after working up north. Harnessing their enterprising spirit, they find new opportunities for themselves that lead to success. The story also describes the establishment of a free market society throughout the entire American continent with Guatemala City as the capital. In this New America, there is no more government intervention and the success of private enterprise benefits everyone.
