The Return - Family Separation portrays the challenges faced by 12-year-old Geovanny and his family. After being apprehended at the US border and separated from his father for six months due to the US family separation policy, Geovanny returns to Guatemala a changed boy. Once a star student, he drops out of school, while his father, burdened by debt from their failed attempt to reach the US, fears losing his land and livelihood. An unexpected call from the US offers a glimmer of hope to change their circumstances.
Filmed over six years, The Return - Family Separation explores themes of family bonds across borders, the resilience of a father and son striving to reunite, and the long-term impact of US immigration policy.
