From Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Errol Morris comes the feature documentary, SEPARATED. Our Gadi Elkon spoke with Journalist and Executive Producer Jacob Soboroff about his book and reporting that inspired this film.
Based on NBC News Political and National Correspondent Jacob Soboroff’s book, Separated: Inside an American Tragedy, Morris merges bombshell interviews with government officials and artful narrative vignettes tracing one migrant family’s plight. Together they show that the cruelty at the heart of this policy was its very purpose. Against this backdrop, audiences can begin to absorb the U.S. government’s role in developing and implementing policies that have kept over 1300 children without confirmed reunifications years later, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
Our Gadi Elkon spoke with Jacob about the horrors of the U.S. government’s immigration policies and the fear for what could be coming. Jacob explains the harsh reality of our system, why its important to expose it and about so much more.
Here is our interview with Author and Journalist Jacob Soboroff:
