Sole Survivors is a contemporary portrait of one American woman and three immigrants who put their lives on the line to seek and realize not only the American Dream, but their own, more personal and deeply-felt dreams of freedom.
Life and death issues are closely counterposed in a dramatic, inspiring mini-saga of tender visions and painful, sharp-edged realism. Political expression and repression, marriage and divorce, even humor (touching, Chaplinesque humor and pathos) take center stage in Vest's solo performance.
Sole Survivors is based on extensive interviews Michelle conducted with documented and undocumented workers.
