AS I FIGHT FOR IT HERE
(Lucas Nieto / 2005 / Spanish with English subtitles)

Harold, a "illegal" immigrant in Madrid, makes a living selling Colombian snacks to the prostitutes in night clubs and brothels. For him as for many other Colombians, life in Spain is a struggle between the desire of going back with his family or deciding to stay making money far from his people.
*As I fight for it here* was Director Lucas Nieto´s first documentary. Shot in Madrid, Spain, with a one-man production team following the main
character’s working route around Madrid’s normally unseen areas, the film describes an undocumented man’s struggle to earn a living far from his loved ones.
