DESCRIPTION:This year at the 93rd Academy Awards there’s only one film that focuses 
 on immigration: \n"Call Center Blues". Directed by an immigrant woman 
 filmmaker, Geeta Gandbhir, \nit depicts deportees grappling with loss, love 
 and the rebuilding of their lives and community \nin Tijuana, 
 Mexico.\n\nMany times, the stories of those who’ve been detained or 
 deported are framed in a negative way to scare the public. This leads to 
 policies that abandon much of our immigrant community and prevent policies 
 that would otherwise protect people or reunite families.\n\nThe film "Call 
 Center Blues" shows an honest portrayal of life after deportation and the 
 cruelty of the deportation force without ever showing ICE’s side of the 
 story, and it is one that is particularly important and must be heard — 
 both at the Oscars and by President Biden and Congress. \n\nWatch film for
