Storyline

The Trump administration has turned immigration courts into deportation traps. As ICE agents wait to arrest their targets outside of courtrooms, their banal conversations clash with the severity of their actions. Filmed in New York's Federal Plaza from November 2025 through January 2026, this documentary short captures the virulent callousness of ICE agents detaining migrants simply trying to stay in the United States legally.
