Summary
Óscar, a 12-year-old Honduran boy, who is forced to flee his home and seek asylum in the United States, only to find himself trapped in the U.S. immigration system. As Óscar attempts to reach his uncle, Manuel, in Arizona, he is apprehended by Border Patrol and placed in the "Icebox," a processing center for Hispanic migrant children. Up against a seemingly impenetrable immigration system, Óscar struggles to navigate a path to freedom, with a journalist and his uncle--himself a recent immigrant--as his only lifeline.
