Chicago filmmaker Andrew Freer's documentary company, Go Fourth Media, showcased the human toll of ICE raids at the Doc10 Film Festival, which focuses on local storytelling and civic engagement. The festival's closing event, "ICE Under Watch: Media and Community Resistance," focused on the human cost of last year's large-scale immigration enforcement operation, "Operation Midway Blitz," which led to dozens of arrests across the Chicagoland area.
