ABOUT THE FILM

EVERY KID NEEDS THEIR PARENTS

But for 11 year-old Densel, 13 year-old Harye, 16 year-old Virginia, and the over 11 million children across the U.S. who are the only English speakers in their family, sometimes that relationship gets flipped. This is the untold story of kids who act as their family's translators on matters that are sometimes more adult than they are.

Directed by Rudy Valdez.
Proudly presented by U.S. Bank.
