Can These Chinese Asylum Seekers Reach Their 'American Dream'?

The Chinese migrants arrive in Mexico, and immediately end up on the receiving end of traumatic experiences. Mexico will soon turn out to be the most treacherous part of their journey, with pressure from the government, drug cartels, and smuggling gangs. Meanwhile, in the US, sentiment is rapidly changing towards migration. Texas makes it a criminal offence to cross the Wall. New York City starts to evict migrants from shelters. Ahead of the Presidential Election, former President Donald Trump threatens a mass deportation.
