detention of persons

High school senior Ashley grapples with an unintended pregnancy, and finds herself detained under Act 292 (Wisconsin's ?Unborn Children Protection Act?), and must find her own strength and resilience as she fights to protect her unborn child and secure her own freedom.

Nine-year-old Betita and her parents fled Mexico after her uncle was killed by the cartels, and settled in Los Angeles seeking political asylum and safety in what her father calls Aztlan, the land of the cranes; but now they have been swept up by by the government's Immigration Customs Enforcement, her father deported back to Mexico, and Betita and her mother confined in a family detention camp--Betita finds heart in her imagination and the picture poems her father taught her, but each day threatens to further tear her family apart.

Fleeing abusive relatives and extreme poverty in Mexico, young Santiago endures being detained by ICE while crossing the border into the United States.

Papi le cont?? la historia desde antes que su familia emigrara a Los ??ngeles huyendo de la guerra del narcotr??fico en M??xico: le dijo a Betita que ellos y el resto de su familia son grullas que han regresado a su tierra prometida. Pero un d??a Papi es arrestado por el Servicio de Control de Inmigraci??n y Aduanas y deportado a M??xico. Betita y su mam??, que est?? esperando un beb??, se quedan solas. Muy pronto ellas tambi??n son detenidas y deben aprender a sobrevivir en un centro de detenci??n de inmigrantes. La fortaleza de Betita y sus compa??eros en busca de asilo vuela por encima del odio que los mantiene enjaulados, pero que amenaza cada d??a con hacerlos caer m??s bajo de lo jam??s imaginaron. ??Podr??n estas familias volver a estar juntas alguna vez?.
