"Destination America" is a four part educational documentary series which explores the motivational forces and reasons for contemporary immigration focusing on four themes: Episode One, The Golden Door; Episode Two, The Art of Departure; Episode Three, The Earth is the Lord's; and Episode Four, Breaking Free: A Women's Journey. "Breaking Free: A Women's Journey" focuses on two compelling women who have emigrated to the United States: the first is a Guatemalan woman fleeing domestic violence who filed a landmark political asylum case, and an Iranian legislator who fled Iran after the fall of the Shah.
