Plot Synopsis

Executive produced by Selena Gomez, LIVING UNDOCUMENTED is a documentary series that chronicles the lives of eight undocumented families in the United States, who took the extraordinary risk in 2018 of allowing film crews to follow them while potentially facing deportation. Ranging from harrowing to hopeful, their journeys illuminate and humanize the complex US immigration system. In the series opener, "A Prayer in the Night," Luis drives his girlfriend Kenia's son Noah to be reunited with his mother, so the two might be deported together. Alejandra awaits her fate. Then, in "The World Is Watching," ICE traps Luis, and Alejandra's appeals are denied. Meanwhile, Ron and Karen's Israeli-born daughter, Bar, gets DACA status and a work permit. On Wednesday, October 2, 2019 at 3:01am ET/12:01am PT, Netflix released six episodes of LIVING UNDOCUMENTED.
