In April, Fine Line Films traveled to El Paso, Texas to work with Las Latinitas, an organization that empowers young Latinas through media and technology. The girls stories reveal, in a personal way, the challenges that young people face growing up on the U.S./Mexico border. These girls are inspiring, brave, and creative, and it was gratifying to hear them respond to Life on the Line — one girl said, “this movie is like my life.” See the girls’ stories in our LifeLines story collection, and a gallery of behind the scenes images of our budding photojournalists from the workshop.
