Separated

Grd separated

The American dream no more.

Oscar®-winning filmmaker Errol Morris confronts one of the darkest chapters in recent American history: family separations. Based on NBC News Political and National Correspondent Jacob Soboroff’s book, Separated: Inside an American Tragedy, Morris merges bombshell interviews with government officials and artful narrative vignettes tracing one migrant family’s plight. Together they show that the cruelty at the heart of this policy was its very purpose.

Against this backdrop, with hundreds of families still separated years later, audiences can begin to absorb the US government’s role in this unthinkable horror and be warned that we are on the verge of allowing it to happen again.

Dedicated to Executive Producer Diane Weyermann, Doc Edge Superhero (1955 – 2021).
