The Golden Land

A testimony of the journey to the New Golden Land, where rivers have milk instead of water and trees grow money.
The reality is different from what expected and promised, the farewell to Sicily painful.
But the family Mancuso will have to be divided: the mother and the mute son will have to go back, following the strict selection of Ellis Island.
Good reproduction of the experience of the immigrants and of what they went into.
But what I felt lacking is a true story, something to feel for.
A good documentary, great pictures and scenes, but nothing more.
