This article is about a short documentary made by an Oscar-winning filmmaker that shows how volunteers in Minneapolis tracked ICE agents during immigration raids, capturing tense confrontations and the fear felt by undocumented immigrants. The filmmakers say their goal is to expose what they see as normalized violence in Trump’s deportation efforts and to show that community resistance, like filming raids and protesting, can force changes—such as when ICE pulled back most of its agents after public pushback.
