About This Movie
The Hand That Feeds is an eye-opening documentary set in the bustling milieu of a deli on New York's Upper East Side. It offers a raw glimpse into the lives of undocumented workers who endure sublegal wages and perilous conditions, all under the thumb of unsympathetic management. The film's pacing is deliberate, allowing the audience to absorb the tension and struggles faced by these individuals. Mahoma López, the central figure, isn't your typical activist; his journey from sandwich maker to advocate unfolds in an organic, almost understated way. The atmosphere is thick with both camaraderie and conflict, and the practical effects come from the real, gritty world of food service rather than staged dramatizations. This is a poignant look at labor rights, community, and the quiet strength of those often overlooked.
