No theatrical for The Infiltrators due to Coronavirus outbreak

A theatrical bow for the critically acclaimed “The Infiltrators”, originally set for March 27 (NY) and April 3 (L.A), looks unlikely now due to theater closures as a result of the Coronavirus outbreak.

Oscilloscope Laboratories announced that planned theatrical release of, is now off the cards, but that the film will still be coming out Cable On Demand / Digital Platforms starting June 2.

“The Infiltrators” is a docu-thriller that tells the true story of young immigrants who are detained by Border Patrol and thrown into a shadowy for-profit detention center— on purpose. Marco and Viri are members of the National Immigrant Youth Alliance, a group of radical DREAMers who are on a mission to stop unjust deportations. And the best place to stop deportations, they believe, is in detention. However, when Marco and Viri attempt a daring reverse ‘prison break,’ things don’t go according to plan. By weaving together documentary footage of the real infiltrators with re-enactments of the events inside the detention center, “The Infiltrators” tells an incredible and thrilling true story in a genre-defying new cinematic language. Alex Rivera and Cristina Ibarra direct.
