## Resource

Camila Vidal is a Peruvian filmmaker based in LA. In this episode Camila shares how she got her love of filmmaking from her mom, moving to Buenos Aires for film school, making it as a successful director-for-hire of commercial projects, what an MFA at Cal Arts really gave her, hustling to get a visa and pay off her student loans, and all the projects she’s working on now, including the script for her feature film debut. As fellow Peruvians, we couldn’t be prouder! You can check out her work here . WATCH on YouTube! REACH OUT: Want to share your immigration stories or have a question? We'd love to hear from you.

ABOUT THE HOSTS: Luciana and Claudia Valdiviezo know what it’s like to move to the U.S. – twice. They were born in Peru and lived there for only a few years until their parents moved the family to the U.S. The sisters kept in touch with their roots, speaking Spanish at home and every Christmas when they visited Peru for the holidays. Then, when they were 12 and 11 respectively, the family moved back to Peru. Growing up both Peruvian and American during those formative years gave Luciana and Claudia a deep understanding of what it means to belong, and not belong, at the same time. The sisters eventually moved back to the U.S. Luciana is a marketing professional living in Washington D.C. with her husband and two young children. Claudia is a writer living in New York City.
