Sentenced Home

A documentary film by David Grabias and Nicole Newnham

Putting a never-before-seen face on current U.S. deportation policy, SENTENCED HOME follows the heart-breaking sagas of three Cambodian-Americans through the deportation process over the course of three years, from the streets of inner-city Seattle to the rice paddies of Cambodia. This timely and poignant film shows how their lives have come full-circle, from birth in the Killing Fields to an unwilling return decades later, and profoundly illustrates the devastating effect deportation has on them and their families.
