New Hulu documentary 'Asylum' shows families' long, difficult journey for refuge in US

The filmmakers followed the families for more than a year, filming unexpected twists in their quest for asylum.

Elmer John Gomez was forcibly separated from his daughter Marisol for more than a year.

"I've lost her, but God willing, I'll get her back," Gomez said in Spanish.

The two were separated in June 2018 under former President Donald Trump's zero-tolerance immigration policy. They'd fled Honduras after Gomez, a policeman, said he and his family received death threats.

Gomez was deported, but his teenage daughter was kept at an immigration detention center in Texas.
