Synopsis by Perry Seibert
Lorena Parlee and Richard Ray Perez's documentary Cesar's Last Fast paints a portrait of the crusader Cesar Chavez using his final grand act of protest, a long hunger strike designed to bring attention to how pesticides used on corps were harming those that worked the fields, as a focal point for discussing his inspiring legacy.
