New DVD: Foreign Parts

August 29, 2012

We recently added Foreign Parts to the DBRL collection. The film played at the 2011 True False Film Fest and was a New York Times critics pick. Here’s a synopsis from our catalog:

Filmed in 2008 and 2009, an intimate portrait of the auto repair shops and junkyards that lie in the shadow of the New York Mets’ Citi Field Stadium, in Willets Point, Corona, Queens, and the hardscrabble community of immigrants who work and live there. Once ignored and neglected by the city government, these residents recently became the target of a $3 billion redevelopment project of malls, offices, and high-rise condos.

Check out the film trailer or the official film site for more info.
