Adjusting to a new home is a scary, uncertain experience. These short films explore the joys and pains of the immigrant experience, underlining the inclusive power of community.
This program will also screen in person at NWFF on Saturday, Feb. 3 at 1:30pm! VIRTUAL, IN-PERSON, and HYBRID (virtual AND in-person) Festival Passes are available.
Words are the messengers of our thoughts, but they can also convey prejudice. What's behind these words? What's behind the words spoken about refugees who flee their countries and travel thousands of kilometers, putting their lives in danger? This youth-made film was programmed in partnership with the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations and the International Organization for Migration’s PLURAL+ Youth Video Festival.
