Audience Member A very moving portrait of what it means to go for asylum in the United States, and a revealing look at the beaurocrats who interview, review and approve or dis-approve the petitions of asylum-seekers. Eye-opening for anyone interested in the naturalization process, or anyone who works in humanitarian causes. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member This documentary is about the INS and the process of applying for political asylum. It's very interesting. They do a great job of showing how arbitrary the INS decisions are, but it doesn't make the INS out to be evil either. I highly recommend it. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Maybe I expected something else, but I felt a little let down by this. It kept switching between the perspectives of asylum seekers and the asylum officers in one specific INS office. I wish it was more balanced and there were rhetorics to provide more insight into the documentary. I did appreciate the sometimes very personal segments, but once again, it could have been put together better. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
