After producing the music video for their song “Excuse My Accent,” artists Rob Young Walker and Andrei “Drei Ros” Rosca met Hector Barajas, a deported American military veteran. Upon hearing his story, they embark on a journey to shed light on the issue. "Bring Them Home" is a powerful, award-winning documentary exploring the harrowing issue of deported veterans—a group who have honorably served yet find themselves exiled by the very nation they defended. This gripping film highlights the stories of non-citizen soldiers who are deported, intertwining personal sacrifice with national identity.
