La Comunidad	photographs thanks to Carla Sánchez text by Julia Cardona Mack
	shooting in Columbia, South Carolina June 3-15 2002

	Carmina (Carla Sánchez) is late for the weekly clinic meeting the morning after her cousin Laura has a car accident. Alex (Miguel René) Laura's on-again-off-again boyfriend, is surprised by the news.  Joe Woodard, Director of Photography, steadies his elbow on the blanket.
	This was a friendly cast and a pleasure to work with!! Marilyn Brito (Laura), Miguel René (Alex), Ignacio Casas (Rafa), Carla Sánchez (Carmina), María Sedano (Ángela) and Debora Latenia (Duna) smile for the camera in the waiting room of the clinic as they wait for lighting to get set up in the hallway.
	Life of the Party Jesús Brañas (Jaime) joins in (fourth from left).  To his left is Samantha Simms (Ashleigh) while Mike Sexton, The Man with the Golden Ear (Audio Tech) sticks his mustache between them.  Passing by in the background and pretending to ignore the scene, David Murray, Director of It All.
	Mike Sexton in typical pose, waits for lighting and camera to be ready.  Carla Sánchez (Carmina) practices drinking from her mug.  Between them, Rocío Barajas, Assistant Director and Language Coach, goes over the script one more time.
	David Murray about to say "Action!".  Carmina and Ángela will discuss the missing narcotics... again.      --¿Sospechas de alguien?--     --¿Quién?  ¿Yo?  ¡Ay virgen!  ¿Quién dijo? (PAUSE) ...por otro lado, Alex tiene esa pinta de delincuente...--      --I you know what you mean.
	Rehearsal of "end of the day" scene at the clinic.  (This is the day that Mila has her emergency landing.)  "Ashleigh did a great job under difficult circumstances" says Jaime.  Looking at Ashleigh and Jaime's face,  you have to wonder what the job was and why the circumstances were so "difficult".             For those of you who weren't there: Never fear.   David got rid of Ashleigh's wink and Jaime's smirk...  too bad! Rocío, ever vigilant, in the foreground.
	Everybody loved Alex.  Laura Wadford, Make Up and Wardrobe Designer, shows Miguel René how to unbutton his shirt.  In this scene Carmina had just examined Alex and discovered that he was really sick and should have been taking  something stronger than aspirin.  (...hmmm...could it be?  No!  He wouldn't do such a stupid thing.  He knows that he's the first one we would think of... on the other hand, he's such a sleazy character.)

The company moved to Chapel Hill on June 25.  CLICK HERE for more pictures.
