The Family Reunions Project, created by Alvaro Morales and María, uses virtual reality (VR) to enable immigrants in the US to "revisit" their hometowns in Latin America and see family members via immersive video. The project travels to the overseas hometowns of people who are unable to leave the US because of their immigration status and films the local area and everyday lives of their family. They then recreate the experience via VR headset, allowing people to see relatives from whom they have been separated for years.
