The Pedacito de la Tierra (A Little Piece of Home) weaves together humanitarian, migrant and refugee, food, and sustainability issues from around the world. The film offers stories of hope, growth and community to raise awareness and support for the efforts of global humanitarian organizations, Alight, and Burners Without Borders. 


Set in a temporary shelter in the U.S./Mexico border town of Nogales, Mexico, the film shares a touching, enlightening story of the power of togetherness in the face of strife and hardship. As a community of unsettled migrants seeking asylum in the United States, these individuals show the true essence of perseverance and faith in one another to create a better life in their temporary shelters.


This tale of innovation and inspiration is told in an effort to initiate an avalanche of constructive thought, discourse and action, and to leave a lasting social impact that increases public awareness and incites change in policy.
