When someone chooses or is forced into self-deportation, where does that leave their partner? Do lovers carry any accountability for the choices made, or the ones left unmade? Should they?

Whether you're a partner, a friend, or simply someone seeking to understand the human cost of deportation, this conversation promises to challenge assumptions and spark deep reflection. It’s not just about borders—it’s about bonds.
