DESCRIPTION

The story of the children who feed America. Every year, hundreds of thousands of children leave their homes and their schools to travel around the US picking the crops we all eat. They work long hours in the hot sun, exposed to pesticides, losing the opportunity to break the cycle of poverty- all so that their families will have enough money to survive. These children are American citizens, but are not protected by outdated labor laws. Find out more by visiting http://www.shineglobal.org. Film set to premier in early 2011.
