Separated: Children at the Border

Separated: Children at the Border

Separated: Children at the Border is one of the those timely, tough reports from “Frontline” that reminds me why it is the gold standard of broadcast documentary reporting. It offers exactly the kind of clarity on complex, emotional issues so needed in these days of lies, confusion and propaganda from the White House.”
—David Zurawik, The Baltimore Sun



Synopsis
