A documentary about young gay man Moises Serrano, who was born in Mexico but brought to the US when he was a toddler. Due to his background he is undocumented, and now campaigns for people like himself, giving the issues a human face. His status means he’s not just barred from many basic benefits naturalised citizens get, but when the documentary opens he’s potentially at risk of being deported to a country he hasn’t been in since he was two-years-old. However, as Obama plans changes to the rights of young undocumented people, and the Supreme Court makes decisions about gay rights, Moises world and possibilities start to change.
