MUGG’S MOVERS (Dramedy)

When a good-hearted, undocumented worker shows up for his first job in America, his colleagues at a shady moving company teach him how to make easy money by scamming the customer. Award-winning filmmaker, Alison Marek (MFA, Kanbar, Film), takes a humorous and heartfelt look at one man’s search for fortune.
