Indivisible
PRESENTED BY: Meaningful Movies Port TownsendMeet the real people at the heart of our nation’s immigration debate. Renata, Evelyn, and Antonio were young children when their parents brought them to the U.S. in search of a better life; they were teenagers when their mothers, fathers, and siblings were deported. Today, they are known as Dreamers. Indivisible takes place at a pivotal moment in their lives, as they fight for a pathway to citizenship and a chance to be reunited with their loved ones. Frustrated with the stalled legislative process, the trio take matters into their own hands and petition for a special waiver that would allow them to leave the U.S to visit their families—and legally return. With the future of immigration reform uncertain, the three do not know if their trips are a once in a lifetime experience, or the beginning of true family reunification.
Special Guests: Kate Franco, vice-chairwoman of the Jefferson County Immigrant Rights Advocates (JCIRA) and Leanne Smith, Amnesty International Legislative Coordinator for Washington State
Sponsors: Meaningful Movies Port Townsend, Amnesty International, QUUF Green Sanctuary Environmental Action Committee, and QUUF Social and Environmental Justice Council
