The Infiltrators is unlike anything you’ve seen—a seamless melding of documentary footage and reenactments, exposing our broken immigration and detention system. This social justice documentary follows a group of Dreamers who purposefully get thrown into a for-profit detention center to fight for change from within, offering a new lens into activism.

 

"Now more than ever we need to be reminded that the poor and huddled masses are real people with real families, all yearning to be free."
- CNET
 
"The Infiltrators is unflinching yet entertaining storytelling and couldn't be timelier in this oppressive age of Trumpism."
- San Antonio Current
 
"This is a necessary film; but rather than feeling like homework, watching it is a thrill."
- Hollywood Reporter
