This shorts collection contains immigration stories. One immigration story does not represent all. The story of how one might come to live in place in which they were not born might be very different from another's story. What’s important is that we are willing and able to learn about the life journeys of other young people so we can remove the walls to empathy and understanding and find just and humane solutions beyond borders.


For Ages 11-14 | 67 minutes | Presented in English, nonverbal, and original languages with English subtitles


Themes: Understanding differences, inclusion, immigration/immigration process, hopes and dreams, identity, first generation experiences


This program contains: Content Warning: Separation/loss, physical and/or emotional conflict

Seahorse


Hanan accompanies her brother to classes in the public pool. The first swimming badge is called Seahorse, their instructor explains, because it doesn’t drown. When Hanan came to Europe in a rubber dinghy, she couldn’t swim. To overcome this trauma she learned to swim, now it is her little brother’s turn.
