The Unafraid
MCC Theater
The Unafraid is a documentary that follows the lives of three DACA students in Georgia, a state that has banned them from attending top state universities and disqualifies them from receiving in-state tuition at any other public college. This film takes an intimate look at the lives of Alejandro, Silvia, and Aldo as they navigate activism, pursue their right to an education, and fight for the rights of their families and communities. The Unafraid shows us what it means to grow up both American and undocumented in the United States. Post film discussion with the film-maker to follow. 1h 25m
