Dear Working Hands

Lilian is an immigrant single mother raising her nine-year-old son while working in the United States. She works hard to provide for her child with the fear of deportation to Peru, her hands somehow remind me of my mother's hands. These working hands hold many stories that are rich and diverse, and often express the human experience and their authenticity.
