Jasmine, an 11-year-old girl, goes to the White House to fight to keep her family together; sisters Evelyn and Elizabeth exchange plans where, no matter how hard they try, they cannot build a future together; and José Eduardo Aguilar “El Deportee” has turned Spanglish into a weapon of activism to defend his generation of deportees, rapping his poetry out loud.
