The State of Arizona
a DCTV Presents screening
co-presented with ITVS Community Cinema
This brand new vérité documentary by the folks behind the award-winning Farmingville, captures the explosive emotions and complex realities behind Arizona's headline-grabbing struggle with illegal immigration. Following Arizona's controversial Senate Bill 1070, dubbed the "show me your papers" law, The State of Arizona tells the stories of Arizonans on all sides of this divisive issue from ground zero of the nation's immigration debate.
