Home Is Somewhere Else is an animated feature documentary providing a window into the hearts and minds of immigrant youth and their undocumented families in Mexico and the United States.

The campaign of this film aims to create empathy and solidarity towards undocumented youth and their families by changing the narratives about migrant families. For this, they have held dozens of screenings, debates, and even spoken word workshops on both sides of The Wall between the US and Mexico (and even on the Wall itself!).

In parallel, the team behind the film works to generate discussions among legislators in Mexico and the US about the urgent need for a Migration Reform based on a Human Rights approach that ends family separation.
