Overview

For many children of undocumented immigrants, life in America exists in a state of limbo; they grow up speaking the language and immersed in the culture, but without social security cards, work permits or documentation, they are unable to obtain driver’s licenses, steady jobs or in some cases, secondary education. American Dreaming follows two such individuals as they enter adulthood, bump up against the barriers to success facing all children of undocumented immigrants and fight to overcome what they consider modern-day segregation.
