Movie Haiku:Fascinating doc focusing on immigration debate in suburban Virginia also provides insights into role of "new media" in politics at grassroots level. Film ends with Obama''''s ''''08 election, but has obvious implications for looming mobilization for Nov ''''10. Asian-American filmmaking team stays resolute even as they become actors in the drama.
