Seeking Sanctuary

Boston Calling

Available for over a year

We step inside a California church that’s asking unauthorised immigrants to seek shelter from the law amid its pews. Then, we head to Kansas and meet a high school student from Guatemala who says he’s drowning in the debt he owes to smugglers who got him into the US. Plus, how a helmet equipped with an ultrasound camera is demystifying the sounds of the Irish language. And, a young Syrian refugee tells us about her remarkable short film, ‘The Girl Whose Shadow Reflects the Moon’, which combines magical imagery and gritty reality.
