Khalil, a Syrian national and activist detained at an ICE facility in Louisiana, faces deportation after being accused of supporting Hamas. His case has mobilized students nationwide, leading to protests advocating for his release. Khalil is featured in "The Encampments," a documentary documenting student activism surrounding Palestinian liberation, which highlights his personal story of displacement and familial history with Palestine. The film will premiere at the Copenhagen International Documentary Festival on March 25, further amplifying the voices of students affected by these issues.
Khalil's detention has sparked national student protests around the country.
