Chop Shop

Now on DVD.

Jacket: "In a bustling wasteland of stolen cars, mechanics and street hustlers, Alejandro, a tough and ambitious street orphan, and his older sister, Isamar, must rely on each other to survive. Living and working in the Iron Triangle, a sprawling junkyard in Queens, New York, the two find their dreams threatened by the harsh truths of life, only to find hope and salvation in one another."

New York Times Review: Chop Shop

"Chop Shop" places you right in the middle of the gritty, scrap world of Alejandro and Isamar. I'm pretty sure I knew kids like this growing up and Alejandro Polanco gives an amazing performance.

A must-see!
