Review of Juan in Laredo: Looking at the Rio Grande

This is a great slice-of-life piece about a young man's experience living
just over the border in the United States. In less than ten minutes, Juan
covers a wide range of emotional territory (from humor to horror, from
anguish to hope) all in a beautifully soft-spoken narrative. The ambient
sounds, music, and voices of his family make this an extremely rich piece.
