Potentially Dangerous is a documentary that tells the untold story of the 600,000 Italian residents of the United States who were declared "Enemy Aliens" during World War II, subjected to curfews, workplace bans, and internment camps without being charged with a crime. Despite many having lived in the US for decades, being born there, and having sons serving in the military, they were deemed "Potentially Dangerous" solely based on their birthplace. The documentary shares the stories of these individuals, many of whom remained silent about their experiences for 80 years, revealing the devastating impact of this wartime era on Italian American communities.
