A restored version of the movie 'El Norte,' about 2 Guatemalan siblings' harrowing crossing into the US, will be released on video and one day in theaters for Hispanic Heritage Month.

Everything that's in “El Norte” is a true story based on something that really happened to somebody. I did hundreds of interviews with undocumented [people] and with Border Patrol guys.

The Marino priests tried to service and help this community because they had nothing. They invited me to come to mass there, and it's filled with these Mayan refugees, hundreds of them. It was an overwhelming experience. I also wanted to show the truth of what trying to survive here is, because it's nothing like what people think.

When I sat at a theater at the Academy and saw this magnificent restoration, people were just blown away. We got this huge standing ovation. They came up to me and said, it is just as beautiful as any epic film that's ever been made.
