Lunatic 19’s: A Deportational Road Trip
(1F, 1M)
(75 mins)
Recovering from a serious car crash, Gracie, an undocumented Chicana worker from Kentucky, is tracked down to her hospital bed by immigration enforcement officer Alec. Dragged from hospital, she begins the long and absurd journey towards deportation.
With coruscating humour and caustic observation, Lunatic 19’s captures the human stories at the heart of the current debate about migration and refugees, and the brutal surrealism of jailer and prisoner bound together on a road trip to exile and new beginnings.
