Documentary · 39m

Among the countless asylum seekers who have clawed their way to the U.S. are two families -- Angel Ramos and his toddler son, and Elmer Gomez and his daughter. For more than a year, the filmmakers captured the two fathers' dreams, prayers, and realities. Asylum is a rare and intimate look at their journeys through some of their most vulnerable moments -- revealing that, even after the harrowing roads that brought them to the country they once dreamed of, their path to asylum is long and often elusive.
