YOUR RATING

THE UNDOCUMENTED is a ninety-minute cinema verite documentary that exposes a little known consequence of current United States immigration policy. Since 1998 more than 2000 dead bodies and skeletal remains of illegal border crossers have been found in the desert in southern Arizona. The film chronicles ArizonaÂ’s deadly summer months, following humanitarians and Border Patrol agents who fight to prevent migrant deaths, medical investigators and the Mexican Consulate who work to identify dead border crossers, and Mexican families who struggle to accept the loss of their loved ones.
