The All-Americans

synopsis

Home to the nation's largest Latino immigrant population, East Los Angeles sits squarely in the crossfire of the debate about American identity. Yet every November this community comes together for a distinctly American event, drawing 25,000 proud locals to one of the country's fiercest high school football rivalry games: The East L.A. Classic. The All-Americans follows four students seeking glory on the field while grappling with personal obstacles and striving to make sense of their community's place in today's America.
