Venezuelan immigrant Yineska confides in a longtime friend about the growing fear she feels due to the presence of law enforcement near her home in Florida. Even though she has legal documents to work, she decided not to go to her shift the previous night after her friend alerted her to Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents nearby.
At the same time, Yineska’s family faces the urgent need for income, not only to cover basic living expenses but also to pay for legal advice and apply for other immigration benefits.
“Status: Venezuelan” tells the story of one Venezuelan family in Florida trying to stay together — and stay in the U.S. legally — as they navigate the shifting immigration landscape under the Trump administration’s policies.
