David Riker's critically acclaimed feature film debut is a moving tribute to the struggles and hopes of Latin American immigrants in New York City. Filmed in the nineties over the course of six years, LA CIUDAD creates an unforgettable portrait of immigrant life in a collection of four stories about love, hope, and loss: a day laborer paid to gather bricks from an abandoned lot meets a tragic end; a young man newly arrived from Mexico falls in love with a girl from his home village; a homeless puppeter dreams of a better life for his daughter; and a seamstress is in desperate need of money to send home for her daughter's medical treatment.
