new 9500 Liberty is a 2009 documentary by Eric Byler and Annabel Park that chronicles the implementation and backlash against a controversial 2007 immigration ordinance in Prince William County, Virginia, which required police to question individuals suspected of being undocumented immigrants. The film documents the ensuing community division, the rise of anti-immigrant sentiment led by blogger Greg Letiecq, and the eventual repeal of the law after it led to economic decline and public outcry, showcasing a microcosm of the national immigration debate.
