Great Documentary

Sara Alavi did an amazing job capturing the real stories of what refugees have to go through to flee their war-torn countries that they still love. I had no idea how much migrants contribute to this country's economy and how much we equally benefit each other. I am happy to know that there are organizations to help get these people to safety so they can start new lives. It's important for everyone to know the truth about refugees and understand their struggle so we can help the best way we can. God bless all those who are fleeing for their lives from death and destruction and all those who give a helping hand.

Great documentary showing a different perspective of refugees

With our current media outlets, it is easy to get caught up in some of the politics surrounding refugees. This documentary did a great job highlighting what should be the most important part, the human aspect. Living in the US I am reminded about how fortunate we are that we have generally not experienced some of the hardships, tragedies and even death that so many of these refugees have. This film sheds light on many areas that are not highly publicized (human aspect, organizations assisting refugees, how refugees are contributing to society, etc.). It shares a powerful message and I hope more people are able to see the different perspectives that this documentary captures.

Statistics I Didn't Realize

I was quite moved by this humanitarian film. I learned about it through a friend of mine and was curious to watch. Being someone who typically votes Republican, I was unsure and skeptical of what this film would entail. In truth, it is not a political issue, and it is a human issue. Some of the areas and statistics listed were surprising to learn, and I found myself researching there after. It is devastating hearing and learning of the stories migrants often face. I didn't realize that overwhelming majority of our workforce is of foreign born population. While I still carry conservative views, this area of migrants and aiding the Latin communities is something I am realizing is a duty of a civilized human being. I will surely spread the word and reflect on all the messages and insights carried out by this documentary. Well done!

Wow, What do we know about Refugees?

Full of information that we all need to digest in order to move forward with how we develop and treat people being born foreign or a refugee.

Reflecting simultaneously also how to remain all tied together as human beings, with love in our actions.

Sending love and a huge thank you to everyone that gave their stories; Evan, from Gabon Jessica, from Honduras Amira, from Iraq Sana, from Syria Wala, from Sudan Many more not listed, thank you for your time, and hard work to further expand the audience of this information.

Listening is key, Empathy is a must.

In an hour this documentary was able to provide me with testimonials from different Refugees of all genders and ages, educated us and highlighted an amazing organization. The film created a connection for me by sharing common experiences. The way it was filmed I felt like I was there with them all in the conversations. It increased my understanding and has sparked an interest to continue to educate myself and my loved ones. Leaving your home is hard enough but being forced to leave your home is just at another level. Take time to listen and learn straight from the source. Listen/empathy a must.
