Amaraica is a powerful and emotional drama that follows the story of Roberto, an undocumented immigrant who has been living in the United States for several years. Roberto has worked hard to provide for his family and dreams of one day becoming a legal resident. However, his efforts are in vain when he and his wife become caught up in the US government's 'Zero Tolerance' child separation policy.
As Roberto and his wife make their way to the border with their young daughter, they are targeted by border agents and separated from their child. Desperate to be reunited with their daughter, they must navigate a complex and confusing legal system that seems intent on keeping their family apart.
In the meantime, Roberto experiences a personal awakening as he meets other migrants who are also struggling to find a way to stay in the US. Through their experiences, Roberto comes to understand the importance of community and the necessity of fighting for one's rights and freedoms.
Amaraica is a timely and important film that sheds light on the human cost of America's broken immigration system. Through the lens of one family's struggle, the film exposes the deep injustices that exist in the current immigration policies and the urgent need for reform.
