Description
"Without immigration, it's hard to picture how we're going to grow our economy": in rural Nebraska, 50 to 80 thousand jobs need to be filled, according to the Chamber of Commerce. In a local Kawasaki plant, where 30% of the workforce is made up of immigrants, its president calls on making the migration process easier. Immigrants workers praise the quality of life: "quiet, no traffic, low-cost to live here, not too much crime". IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES ARRANGED IN SEQUENCES
