Seeking asylum in a nation of immigrants, Esteban travels from his damaged paradise of Guatemala hoping for a better life only to be separated from his loved ones. Twenty years later, Esteban returns to tell a child's story of hope, tragedy and triumph to a Senatorial committee in Washington DC.The reflection rises above the dark policy of separating children from their parents who legally present themselves to the United States under the Trump administration's zero tolerance immigration policy. Factual events are presented in Esteban's Caravan as seen by the innocent children who went from a hope of peace to an American cage and beyond.
