By the time this documentary premiered, more than one million immigrants had been deported under the Obama administration and critics charged that families were unfairly separated after being caught in a nationwide dragnet. Correspondent Maria Hinojosa investigated President Obama’s enforcement strategies and journeyed into the secretive world of immigrant detention, with a penetrating look at who was being detained and what was happening to them.
