"In a time where migrants are demonized, this is a film that returns the humanity to the term. It's also a film that reminds us that there are still good people in the world. I was moved to the point where I can't really express myself. [...] Highly Recommended."

Ely and Marisela Ortiz, leaders of the volunteer group Águilas del Desierto, receive anywhere from 20-40 distressed calls on a daily basis. The reason? Someone has gone missing while attempting to cross the harsh desert that lies along the southern U.S. border. All too often, when the Águilas ultimately find the missing person, all that remains is a skeleton.
Spare My Bones, Coyote! documents this critical work, which includes migrant education on the other side of the border and has come to dominate the Ortiz's lives. So often spoken of as anonymous masses, Spare My Bones, Coyote repositions the conversation around migrants as one about individuals with loved ones on both sides of the border.
