Ratings and reviews

I would highly recommend watching this movie. Linda and Los Cenzonties share their perspective on what it is to be a Mexican American during a time when it is often not met by some with affection. The movie allows you to celebrate the Mexican culture with truth and pride. The music and dancing are traditional and to watch the children get to experience their true culture is wonderful. This movie is an inspiration to never forget where you come from and to always be proud of who you are. The dancing and singing touches your heart because as you listen to it you hear your mother or sisters singing with you from days gone by. I love that Linda has brought such beautiful light and positivity to our culture. When I hear her voice it always touches my soul. Thank you.....
