Third World California
Script error: No such module "Italic title". Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Third World California is a 2006 documentary film by Otavio Juliano. It depicts the substandard living conditions of undocumented immigrants living within an Indian reservation in the Lower Coachella Valley in the California desert.[1] Because of the reservation's status as a sovereign entity, environmental regulations, building codes, fire safety codes and other basic legal protections cannot be enforced there. As a result, the undocumented residents of the reservation live in squalor next to mounds of sewage sludge, enduring some of the highest summer temperatures in the world in metal trailers without air-conditioning or reliable plumbing, all the while being charged high rentals by their tribal member landlords.
The film debuted at the 22nd Chicago Latino Film Festival.
