T3 Networks Inc. Secures Licensing Agreement with .025% Productions for the Undocumented Project

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) June 30, 2011

T3 Networks Inc., a provider of film, media, licensing and distribution, today announced that it had reached agreement with.025% Productions for Undocumented an independent feature-length narrative documentary.


"Undocumented" heads directly behind-the-scenes into the world of illegal immigration. The film team, led by Justin Malone, traveled to over 25 US cities and Guatemala; compiling some 320 hours of interviews, protest rallies and heated exchanges from multiple perspectives that have been edited into a fast-moving, eye-opening look at one of the biggest cultural phenomenon America has ever known.


Robert Curlin, Executive Producer of.025% Productions, states, My hope was that by sending out a young, somewhat inexperienced but enthusiastic multicultural crew, might cause people to be more relaxed and open in recounting their stories or motivations.


Film and television distribution entity T3 Networks Inc. states that indeed it was the younger, fresh-faced crew, led by Director Malone, which gained access where typical TV reporters might not have had similar luck getting immigrants or activists to speak so candidly about their individual experiences.


Highlighting stories from the front lines accompanied by dramatic footage and cinematography, Malone narrates a compelling story of an incredible journey.


Undocumented features everyone from extremists to those hopelessly stuck in the middle. A consistent stream of immigrantsboth legal and illegal--shares stories of how they arrived in the US, perceptions of life before and after, and how they cope with an uncertain future.


Malone and the production team discover just how broken the system truly is; including living and working conditions they never dreamed could exist in modern America.


Company CEO, Troy B. Phillips III, states, the Undocumented project goes beyond media coverage and protest rallies by using interviews that also include a former Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) agent, everyday citizens, community organizers and activists, as well as business and political leaders from across America, to provide a balanced representation from all sides of hotly debated issues.


While the documentary provides a wide variety of perspectives, the films artwork features a silhouette of two men crawling through stripes of the American flag along with the tagline, Una Pelicula by Justin Malone (translated, A Movie by Justin Malone), which speaks volumes about the sentiments of the theme of the film and the dichotomy of rules and entitlements that baffle many on both sides of what is surely to be a highly-debated issue for the upcoming 2012 national and Presidential elections.


Curlin tells T3 Networks Inc. that Americans today are generally lured into either pro-immigration or anti-immigration camps that are created and funded by various special interest groups aided by a commercially biased media. Yet as the film illustrates, the root causes are far more complex and often have no black or white (or brown) answers.


The Undocumented project has been a labor of love involving a number of creative, insightful team members and supporters helping us to provide an entertaining, albeit an often-disturbing look that puts human faces on issues long overlooked or ignored by so many, Curlin adds.

Ironically, the most uncooperative entity we encountered was the U.S. Government itself - in multiple cities over four different southern Border States, the Department of Homeland Security steadfastly refused to allow the team to photograph or even speak to any U.S. Border Patrol agents.


T3 Networks Inc. states that interest in the project has been overwhelming and that while the program is likely to be a lightning rod for extremists, the firm neither supports nor endorses either side of this issue; it acts only as the distributor of this film content. A company spokesman adds that all inquiries and interview requests for the film creators and staff can be directed to media (at) t3networks.com.
