SYNOPSIS

After being apprehended at the US border and separated from his father for six months, 12-year-old Geovanny returns home to Guatemala. But everything has changed. Formerly a star student, Geovanny drops out of school. Meanwhile his father finds himself in massive debt from the journey to the US and fears he may lose his land—the source of his livelihood—and maybe even his life. Filmed over six years, The Return is a celebration of the resilience of a father and son who dream of returning home.
