Separated (2024)

Plot

Academy Award® winner Errol Morris delves into one of the most harrowing episodes in contemporary American history: family separations at the border. Drawing inspiration from Jacob Soboroff’s book, *Separated: Inside an American Tragedy*, Morris combines gripping interviews with government officials and poignant narrative vignettes that follow a migrant family's struggles. The film reveals the deliberate cruelty embedded within these policies, highlighting the U.S. government's complicity in a crisis that has left over 1,300 children unaccounted for years later, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
