Story Line
Inspired by true events, DISPLACED follows Tina, a privileged woman, volunteering to help undocumented immigrants with their court appearances. She attempts to humanize them in the eyes of the Judge. But each asylum case is more horrifying than the last. A detainee must prove the torture inflicted upon him in his country will continue if he is forced to return; a soft-spoken single mother gets shutdown on an administrative technicality; and a hard-working student is accused of gang affiliation because he chose to wear a Chicago Bulls baseball cap. At the end of the day, one of the refugees suffers a crippling loss and Tina is left forever changed.
