Garnering support from the most influential immigration, human rights and faith based organizations in the country, as well as politicians on both sides of the aisle, Tony & Janina's American Wedding offers a fresh perspective on the immigration conversation, and tells the untold human rights story of Post- 9/11 America, that every undocumented immigrant in our country faces today, with the power to open the conversation for change. Set on the backdrop of the Chicago political scene, and featuring Illinois Congressman Luis Gutierrez at the heart of the immigration reform movement, this film follows the Wasilewski’s 3-year struggle to be reunited, as their Senator Barack Obama rises to the Presidency.
