Ratings and reviews

Great film with wonderful cast and story. What happens to this particular characters in the film is a constant reminder of the terrible injustice that still continues today. It's heartfelt and everyone should watch and start having compassion for those just wanting a better life for their families. I loved the film and hopefully our justice system will work to help stop deportation without some kind of justice.

. Collisions successfully delivers the drama of a young Mexican girl who's mother has been deported and the child's unrelenting struggle to find her. The film is an amazing story of the plight of immigrants in America and the cruel government bureaucracies which tears families apart. Suspenseful and moving this is a tale which should not be missed.

I saw this movie as a fundraiser for a group working to help immigrants and refugees at the Mexican border. Seeing the story of this family being torn apart made the things happening at the time so much more real. Very moving, great acting, totally worth watching.
