In America Irish Immigrants in New York

This romantic drama takes place mostly in the United States with an Irish immigrant family adjusting to life in their new home, New York. From the very beginning, this family captures your heart as they arrive in American to capture the American Dream. Life is hard and they have their ups-and-downs, the children keeping the optimism and seeing the brighter side of a hard life. You'll see how their lives are changed ... and how they change lives, particularly that of Mateo, and HIV-positive neighbor.

You won't get much scenery from Ireland in this film -- but the Irish will and determination is what captivated me.

Have a box of tissues ready as this family will bring tears to your eyes many times.
