Summary
In this episode we discuss Paul Thomas Anderson’s Oscar nominated film: One Battle After Another. Set in the backdrop of a government-waged war on immigration and the revolutionaries fighting to stop it, the movie is ripe with themes of multiculturality, immigration policy, and resistance. We also talk about the movie’s surprisingly comedic moments, its stellar cast, and everything we loved about Leo! WATCH on YouTube! REACH OUT: Send us your questions to: [email protected].

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.
