Whitney

Overview

In the midst of Juan Orlando Hernández’s dictatorship, Whitney (23) covers the first migrant caravan of 2018 on foot. More than ten thousand, almost all Hondurans, determined to reach the United States together. Crossing Mexico there is no return, but Whitney doesn´t quit. Her lens is witness of the terrible expression of a failed regime: the exodus toward Trump’s wall. Whitney no longer cares about risking her graduation and her life, her empathy with the others suffering is stronger.
