52] – Check out the Refugee Film Festival on
Thursdays, April 28 – to see This Is Home, Sept. 29 –to see Accept The Call,
October 27 – to see A Home Called Nebraska and December 8 – to see The Runner. There is no charge, but donations are welcome.
The festival is organized by Journey's
End to the refugee community in Western New York. All films are shown online at
7 PM ET. Please visit and bookmark www.wnyrff.org to access details
of each film. Zoom log-in info will be emailed to you prior to each screening.
Due to film licensing, films can only be screened once on the designated date
and time. Email volunteer@jersbuffalo.org. This Is Home is an intimate portrait of four Syrian refugee families
arriving in America and struggling to find their footing. Displaced from their
homes and separated from loved ones, they are given eight months of assistance
from the International Rescue Committee to become self-sufficient. As they
learn to adapt to challenges, including the newly imposed travel ban, their
strength and resilience are tested. After surviving the traumas of war,
the families arrive in Baltimore, Maryland and are met with a new set of
trials. They attend cultural orientation classes and job training sessions
where they must “learn America” – everything from how to take public
transportation to negotiating new gender roles – all in an ever-changing and
increasingly hostile political environment. Their goals are completely relatable:
find a job, pay the bills, and make a better life for the next generation. Go to https://interland3.donorperfect.net/weblink/weblink.aspx?name=E11271&id=72.
