A Syrian refugee seeks to be reunited with her family.
The film screened as part of DOC NYC, for which our program notes read:
Raf’aa flees Syria in the midst of the war, leaving behind her husband, Nazem, and their two sons in order to seek asylum in Europe. The family plans to follow her to Germany, but by the time Nazem and the boys make it to Greece, they find the borders closed. Confined to the stark conditions of a refugee camp while Raf’aa copes with the trauma she experience on her own journey, will Nazem be able to safely reunite his family?
