EN EL SÉPTIMO DÍA (On the Seventh Day) is a timely and compassionate look at the lives of undocumented immigrants living in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. Bicycle delivery guys, construction workers, dishwashers and deli workers, they work long hours six days a week and then savor their day of rest on Sundays on the soccer fields of Sunset Park. Hardworking and responsible José is a bicycle delivery worker and the team's captain. When they make the finals, José and his teammates are thrilled. But his boss puts a damper on the celebration when he tells José he has to work on Sunday, the day of the finals. If he doesn't work, his job and his future will be on the line. But if he doesn't stand up for himself and his teammates, his dignity will be crushed.

EN EL SÉPTIMO DÍA es una oportuna y humanista mirada a la vida de los inmigrantes indocumentados que viven en Sunset Park, Brooklyn. Los repartidores de comida, trabajadores de la construcción, lavaplatos y trabajadores de delis trabajan durante largas horas seis días a la semana para disfrutar su día de descanso—el domingo—en las canchas de fútbol de Sunset Park. José es un trabajador y responsable repartidor de comida así como el capitán del equipo. Cuando el equipo llega a la final del campeonato, José y sus compañeros están emocionados. Pero el jefe de José amenaza con arruinar la celebración cuando le dice a su empleado que tiene que trabajar el domingo, el día de la final. Si no llega a trabajar ese día, su trabajo y su futuro estarán en riesgo. Pero si no se defiende a sí mismo y a sus compañeros de equipo, su dignidad será abatida.
El quinto largometraje del aclamado director Jim McKay (GIRLS TOWN, NUESTRA CANCIÓN), EN EL SÉPTIMO DÍA es una ventana a un mundo poco visto, una historia narrada con calidez, humor y respeto por los cotidianos desafíos y triunfos de sus personajes.
