Estamos verdaderamente honrados\u00bb, afirm\u00f3 <strong>Steven Del Castro<\/strong>, fundador y co-director ejecutivo de Viva.<\/p>\n<p>Mientras Strike One es una anatom\u00eda de los peligros de vivir en comunidades de bajos ingresos y en riesgo, tambi\u00e9n se trata de la injusticia de la pol\u00e9mica Ley de Tres Strikes de California &#8211; donde la justicia est\u00e1 determinada por el lado de la calle en que vives. El actor y guionista Lawrence Smiglys ha creado una familia en una de esas situaciones \u00abdonde la vida me eligi\u00f3\u00bb. \u00abEsta ley parece insinuar que algunas personas son criminales natos y nunca pueden cambiar\u00bb, dijo Smiglys.<\/p>\n<p>\u00abNuestra pel\u00edcula aporta una voz m\u00e1s realista a un grupo de personas que por lo general son ignoradas\u00bb, declar\u00f3 el director Llauger-Meiselman, \u00aby en su mayor parte son realmente una pieza importante de la cultura americana.\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>\u00abEstamos muy entusiasmados con esta pel\u00edcula, ya que apela a una amplia gama de audiencias y familias debido a su rico material, gran direcci\u00f3n y actuaciones fenomenales por Danny Trejo y todo el elenco\u00bb, dijo el distribuidor de la pel\u00edcula, <strong>Steven Istock<\/strong>, presidente de California Pictures, Inc.<\/p>\n<p>Manny Garc\u00eda (Trejo) est\u00e1 decidido a alejar a su sobrino Juan (Ortiz) de ser v\u00edctima de las trampas de un prejuicioso sistema penal juvenil. \u00abManny es un personaje entra\u00f1able,\u00bb dijo Smiglys, \u00abno importa cu\u00e1ntas veces lo haces caer, \u00e9l va a levantarse y seguir adelante a pesar de la sombra de las leyes burocr\u00e1ticas que existen m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de su comprensi\u00f3n.\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>El productor de cine <strong>Felipe Alejandro<\/strong>, nativo de Boyle Heights, dijo que la realizaci\u00f3n de Strike One fue un trabajo de amor. \u00abLa pel\u00edcula reverbera con el p\u00fablico latino porque es una historia que se hizo para nosotros por nosotros\u00bb, dijo Alejandro. \u00abY, se trata de corregir una ley muy mala, y de que se haga justicia a todos los &#8216;Juan Garc\u00eda&#8217; latinos y negros injustamente declarados culpables y condenados.\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>El estreno de Strike One en la costa este es el jueves, 19 de febrero de 2015, a las 7:20 PM, en The Anthology Film Archives de Nueva York.
