Legal Question in Family Law in Massachusetts

Emancipation

I am 16 years old and was sent to visit my father in Brasil. Except now my mother refuses to send the documentation needed to allow me to travel back to the states. Altough my father doesnt agree with this, you need authorization from both parents to travel out of the country. I am both and American and Brasilian citizen. I live in Massachusetss and I was planning on attempting emancipation when I got back. Is there anything that will allow me to go back, or can I file for emancipation from here?
