Softie follows political activist Boniface “Softie” Mwangi, a daring and audacious political activist, who decides to run for political office in Kenya after several years of fighting injustice in his country. But running a clean campaign against corrupt opponents becomes increasingly harder to combat with idealism alone.

The Infiltrators is a docu-thriller that tells the true story of two young immigrants who get detained by Border Patrol - on purpose - and put in a shadowy for-profit detention center. Marco and Viri are members of the National Immigrant Youth Alliance, a group of radical Dreamers who are on a mission to stop deportations. And the best place to stop deportations, they believe, is in detention.

Opens with Marco recalling how “[they] called Broward a ‘model’ detention center.” Introduces Mohammad, who explains why Broward was an ideal site for targeted immigration activism.

Mohammad is a DREAMer who came to the United States from Iran at age 12. This clip shows the variety of tactics and strategies Mohammad and other DREAMer youth used to loudly and visibly protest deportation policies, in spite of the fear of being deported by ICE.

Organizers prepare for Viri’s detention. Viri explains why she volunteered to infiltrate. Her first attempt is unsuccessful.

Marco introduces himself to Claudio. They discuss the work the National Immigrant Youth Alliance is doing on the outside to stop deportations.

Marco hears Claudio’s detainment story, told from the perspective of Claudio and his son, Emiliano.

Maleoon recounts the first time he realized that his father was losing his memory. It was an episode in a swimming pool with Ma Ke asking the same question over and over.

The clip treats us to portions of a live performance of the “Papa’s Time Machine,” the show that Maleoon has created to help preserve father-son memories.

When artist Maleonn realizes that his father suffers from Alzheimer’s disease, he creates “Papa’s Time Machine,” a magical, autobiographical stage performance featuring life-size mechanical puppets. Through the production of this play, the two men confront their mortality before time runs out and memories are lost forever.

Leila meets with a therapist in Turkey and shares her story. We find out that Leila had a happy childhood, earned a university degree, and worked as a teacher. We also discover that Leila was married to a violently abusive drug addict, applied for and was denied a divorce, had an affair with Sahand, and bore his child.

Sahand reads aloud the decision in his case. His application to UNHCR for refugee status has been rejected. This is especially devastating because Leila and Mani have been approved. They share the news with Mani, who is upset that they may leave without his father. Sahand tries to comfort his son, saying that, “People who want a better life have to go through hard times and this is our hard time.”

After a tense but successful trip to the Iranian consulate to obtain valid divorce certificates, Sahand and Leila rush to get married in time to send proof of marriage to the UNHCR before it closes Sahand’s case and permanently denies him refugee status. Their attempt is almost thwarted because they don’t have the correct pictures or health documents, but the kindness of a clerk saves them.

Leila, Sahand, and Mani flee Iran. They fear they’ll be caught and they fear for the safety of family they have left behind, who may be targeted because of the couple’s actions.

With the therapist, Sahand recalls childhood memories of people publicly whipped and stoned for having an extramarital affair. He also shares that when he was a teenager, he participated in a protest and was arrested. Iranian secret police used implied threats of torture, imprisonment, or death to coerce him to become an informant.
