A pair of Filipino workers navigating through pressing issues in Los Angeles are making their voices heard and their stories felt on the big screen.

The nonprofit Pilipino Workers Center recently premiered its first self-produced documentary "Home of the Brave," which tells of issues in the city from human trafficking to immigration.

Directed by the award-winning Baby Ruth Villarama, the film follows PWC Worker leaders Amelia and Lord.

"These are stories of our members," PWC executive director Aqui Versoza Soriano. "That’s what we wanted to share because sometimes people in our community don’t understand how the immigration system is set up unfairly, especially to our community."

Lattao, meanwhile, said he wanted to help people realize that they should not lose hope amid challenges.

"Don't be scared and don't lose hope. The Lord is always there," he said.

The documentary feature received plenty of rave reviews from the audience, with some left in tears.

There are already plans to bring "Home of the Brave" to other communities such as in Texas.

Its premiere comes with immigration reform being a heated topic and a talking point in the November elections.

Earlier this month, President Joe Biden introduced an executive order that would allow undocumented spouses of U.S. citizens to apply for permanent residency and eventually citizenship.

The Pilipino Workers Center took part in lobbying efforts for the executive order. It hopes that “Home of the Brave” can continue to build on its advocacies.

"This executive order is going to make it possible to have a pathway to adjusting status," said Soriano, "so their families don’t have to stay in limbo as mixed-status families."

While Lord expects to get his legal status through a human trafficking visa, he is hoping that elected officials can also do more for the different types of immigration issues Filipinos are facing.

Wherever the film will show next, PWC and Lattao hope it will make an impact and empower those that hear his message.
