...immigrants narrate their own stories, which include many touching, humorous, and heartbreaking moments. The voices of the filmmakers, on the other hand, are not discernable. “That was very conscious decision,” says Aaron Litvin. “We didn’t want to appear and we didn’t want our questions to appear. We decided to not have any external sound added to the film to try to make it as direct and transparent as possible.” This technique creates a sense of authenticity, as the audience gets to know...

Now the governments of those countries are promising swift investigations into the matter, while...

When my son started nursery school last September at the age of 3, I had registered him for the school lunch program. But when he failed to appear in the lunchroom after that, city officials quickly took notice. My explanation - that I thought he should take a break and eat lunch at home in the middle of the day - was apparently not sufficient. This was personal. (See 10 things to do in Paris...
