Ellis Island. An examination of the history of Ellis Island, called the "Isle of Hope, the "Isle of Tears". Dozens of immigrants recall their adventures and heartaches at the threshold of America's Golden Door. Using archive footage and family stills, we meet members of nearly every ethnic group that made the journey and learn what drove them here, while firsthand accounts highlight the diversity of experiences faced by the tide of humanity that swept through Ellis Island and made America what it is today.
