"Pangarap Amerikano: Farmer-Migrants Behind the Camera" features home movies shot by a farmer-migrant Nicholas Viernes, the unofficial documentarian of the Filipino immigrant community in Chicago. Since his arrival in the US in 1926, Viernes filmed events, gatherings, travels, and various slices of life. The films curated for this program were all from the 1930's and are part of a larger collection of 240 analog films of the Filipino American Historical Society of Chicago (FAHSC), established in 1986.
