The Infiltrators is a docu-thriller unlike any other, telling the true story of young immigrants who are detained by Border Patrol and thrown into a shadowy for-profit detention center – on purpose. Marco and Viri are members of the National Immigrant Youth Alliance, a group of radical DREAMers who are a mission to stop unjust deportations. And the best place to stop deportations, they believe, is in detention. However, when Marco and Viri attempt a daring reverse “prison break,” things don’t go according to plan. By weaving together documentary footage of the real infiltrators with re-enactments of the events inside the detention center, The Infiltrators tells an incredible and thrilling true story in a genre-defying new cinematic language. (Dir. by Cristina Ibarra & Alex Rivera, 2019, USA, in English/Spanish with English subtitles, 95 mins., Not Rated)”

Finally saw this docu drama about two young Dreamers infiltrating the Broward County Detention Center run by ICE in Florida. This all occurred during the Obama Administration, where discretionary releases were granted for potential deportees, if enough pressure was put on the case from Congresspersons or the media. The two infiltrators themselves are Dreamers as well, so were in jeopardy of deportation as well. Sad state of affairs for allegedly illegal aliens (Dreamers or refugees), but must be worse now under Trump Administration.
