Washington, DC -- The 2011 NCLR Annual Conference and National Latino Family Expo has returned to Washington, DC. This event, held July 23-26, included workshops on various topics relevant to the Latino community. One such workshop, entitled The Power of Narrative: Telling the Real Story about Latinos, featured a panel of distinguished speakers from TV and film discussing how the media can help to shape the way Latinos are perceived in America.
Among the panel was Director Mr. Weitz Weitz, most notably known for his work on the films “About a Boy”, “New Moon”, and “American Pie.” His newest film "A Better Life", now playing in theatres nationwide, is a powerful movie about the life of an undocumented immigrant and single father who sacrifices everything to give his son a better life.
