What happened to Carmelo after the movie?


He is the real person who deserves a chance to the American dream, it was a tough movie to watch. he only wanted a job any job so he can support his family. I get sick to the stomach every time, I see those people of low income, who get help from the government and they complain about it. They should be the ones living Carmelo's life, then we will see if they keep complaining. I wondered what happened to Carmelo after the movie ended. Anyone has a clue?

The extra features on the dvd include an interview with the director. He says that Carmelo does not go back to the US, but his daughter does at the age of 17. He misses her, but the family is doing ok overall.

Carmelo did everything from the heart. Great documentary on a good man. Hope he's doing well.
