In Guatemala City, a charter flight operated by Eastern Air Express brings deported individuals back to their homeland. Among those deported is Olinda, who spent four months in a Pennsylvania detention center. She is devastated by her separation from her daughter and the conditions she endured during detention. Upon arrival, deportees are received by the Guatemalan Institute of Migration, which provides initial support, including food and legal guidance. Despite these efforts, the emotional trauma from their experiences remains significant for individuals like Olinda.
Olinda, 31, originally from the north of Guatemala, is visibly shaken upon being deported after four months in a Pennsylvania detention center, where she remembers being bound in chains.
Upon her return, Olinda and others are escorted into a center where they receive guidance, food, and support to help ease the transition after deportation.
