* ATLANTIC PREMIERE *

 

Lunenburg Doc Fest is please to present the Atlantic premiere of THE CROSSING, a first-hand account of the perilous journey made by a group of Syrian refugees. Traversing land and sea on an old fishing boat manned by smugglers, the nail-biting journey leads to Europe where the refugees disperse. Each must battle to create an identity among the maze of regulations and refugee hostels. THE CROSSING shows us the lengths to which people go to find safety and forge their own destiny.

SCREENING:

SAT, Sept 24 @ 1:00pm (55 min)
Lunenburg Opera House
