El Contrato, the documentary that follows a group of Mexican migrant farm workers as they travel to Canada to work in the Seasonal Agricultural Workers Program (SAWP) in Ontario, is available online courtesy of the National Film Board (NFB). You can watch it for free here – anyone interested in migrant farmworker issues should definitely give this one a look, as it opens the lid on the lives and working conditions of some of the workers who pick the food we eat.
