Areli is a Dreamer is the true story of DACA recipient Areli Morales who was born in Mexico, and brought to New York City at age 6 to live with her family, who were trying hard to give her a promising and good life. As an undocumented immigrant and a child who didn't yet speak English, she soon found even things like going to school and playing with new friends to be challenging - the bullying and whispers swirled around her. However, Areli rose to the challenge, and saw what hard work and tenacity could bring, becoming the woman she was meant to be, and one day sharing her story for others to understand the ups and downs of the imimgrant life.
