But there are moments of triumph, too: founding her own nonprofit; working on films that tell important stories; and working with her co-author Dr. Garcia to tell her story in a framework that lays bare the realities of structural oppression.</p><p>As Alix and Antero tally the costs of undocumented life, they present a final bill of what is owed to the immigrant community.
