Overview
In American Me, Edward James Olmos, making his debut as a feature film director, reveals a tragic world of violence… a culture destroying itself from within, where prison is the school that turns children into callous murderers. American Me explores three generations of a Hispanic-American family, beginning with the Pachuco riots in Los Angeles in 1943 and ending in the mid-1970’s.
