Is a series of documentaries discussing the Arab presence in Latin America. This presence is very unique given the time that Arabs have been emigrating to this part of the world. These films do not have one artistic mould, but rather each film has its own style; imposed by the individual culture of each country and the Arab presence within them. Each film is an observation of the phenomena of Arab immigrants in Latin America and their cultural individuality, customs and traditions, their relations with their homelands and their affect and effect on their new societies.
For this series, we have produced 26 films shot in Argentina, Cuba, Chile, Venezuela, Ecuador, Panama, Costa Rica and Honduras and others.
