Movie Description
Oscar-nominated actor Edward James Olmos (BATTLESTAR GALACTICA) directs this true story of a student protest in East Los Angeles in 1968. Led by Paula Crisostomo (Alexa Vega), a number of Chicano students walk out of their high school. The teens want to voice their opposition to the racist policies they encounter on a daily basis. With the help of a concerned teacher played by Michael Peña (WORLD TRADE CENTER), Paula organizes students from five area schools to join the historic demonstration. Featuring an all-star cast, WALKOUT tells the personal and political story of a group of students who worked to change the world.
Industry Reviews
