“An important tool in reframing the conversation...It allows us to identify with the individuals held in Broward who are treated as criminals, when the only “illegal” thing they’ve done is try to access the American dream. They look like prisons, but what they are is concentration camps.” – Peter Debruge, Variety

“Exceedingly smart...The Infiltrators manages to personalize the undocumented struggle by transforming it into an unlikely blend of activism and suspense that makes a compelling case for the abolishment of ICE.” – Eric Kohn, INDIEWIRE

“A vital piece of hybrid cinema that shines light into the obscure realm of privately-operated immigration detention facilities.” – Carlos Aguilar, THE WRAP

“An inspiring, true story about the power and efficacy of grassroots activism, especially when facing the detention and deportation of undocumented people in the U.S....Eye-opening, informational, well-crafted and absolutely crucial.” – Alexander Ortega, SLUG MAGAZINE

“The docu-thriller’s experimental approach makes for a compelling watch.” – Isabelia Herrera, NEW YORK TIMES

“Pushes the boundaries of form while delivering a message of searing content.” – Christopher Llewellyn Reed, hammer to nail

“Ibarra and Rivera maintain an effortless balance between genre-rooted entertainment and concern for real human suffering.” – John DeFore, THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER

“Angry and impressive immigration docudrama.” – Jordan Hoffman, The Guardian
