About the Project

IMG_1009.jpg

The American Dream Project is a narrative documentary multimedia project that provides immigrants with a safe space to share their immigration journeys, experiences living in America, and their thoughts on the American Dream. Ultimately, this project investigates the existence and reality of the American Dream for immigrants today. 

​

I interviewed six immigrants from six different countries of origin on questions about their immigration motivators, their experiences in America, their identities, and the extent to which they think the American Dream exists today.
