Synopsis: | Imagine that you dont have a country. It doesnt matter if you believe youre American, because no one else believes younot potential employers, not banks that issue student loans, not the government. There is no way to become legally American. You dont exist. Worse, you are hunted for deportation. You love this country, but the country does not love you back. In Dream Acts, five undocumented teens from Nigeria, Mexico, Ukraine, Korea, and Jordan face the extraordinary challenge of living ordinary lives under the radar. Each story is moving and urgent; some are funny, others are tragic, and through their experiences, we learn about facts about the DREAM Act and the secret lives lead by undocumented youth. | |||||
