Scripted shows and cable news may lead the cultural conversation, but documentaries tell TV's most essential stories about immigrants and immigration.
It’s two hours before Luis has to deliver his toddler son, Noah, to Immigration and Customs Enforcement to be deported. He’ll reunite his son with the boy’s mom, Kenia. She’s Luis’ girlfriend, and she’s six months pregnant. But like his young family, Luis is also undocumented. If he steps into the ICE handoff facility to see her for the last time, he may be arrested and deported as well.
“The Feeling of Being Watched,” a feature-length film that premiered Monday as part of PBS’ long-running documentary showcase “POV,” portrays the FBI surveillance of a Muslim immigrant community in the Chicago suburbs. Journalist Assia Boundaoui, who grew up in the town, digs into the FBI’s Operation Vulgar Betrayal after 9/11. She gives voice to those watched in their mosques, businesses, even at home.

Kids locked in cages.
