Bienvenido a Canadá, refugiados que rehacen sus vidas

Welcome to Canada from Go Project Films on Vimeo.

Es una película corta, pero merecerá la pena que inviertas algo de tu tiempo en verla. La he encontrado en Vimeo. Me ha conmovido la historia de este joven sirio, Mohammed Alsaleh. En estos días en los que negros nubarrones fascistas se ciernen sobre la política mundial.

"This short film tells the story of Mohammed Alsaleh, a young Syrian refugee granted asylum in Canada in 2014. After fleeing torture and imprisonment by the Assad regime, he is rebuilding his life. Mohammed counsels newly-arrived Syrian refugee families with the same Vancouver-based NGO that aided him during his own resettlement process. Like Mohammed, these families have left loved ones behind and are struggling to adapt to a new land, finding resilience and hope for a new beginning. Like thousands of other newly-resettled refugees, Mohammed has been striving to bring his family to safety in Canada. Millions of Syrians are currently displaced within Syria’s borders and in neighboring countries".
