Refugee
A look at the refugee experience in the United States
"Refugee" tells the story of Aicha Ba, a West African refugee who made the biggest sacrifice of all when she boarded a plane for the US in 2003, leaving her 5 children behind. Despite the trauma of her past, a life-threatening illness, and the harsh realities of life in the South Bronx, Aicha perseveres, driven solely by the desire to provide her children with a better future and to be reunited with them once again.
"Refugee" is the remarkable story of a mother's love, and how the power of hope can propel us through insurmountable obstacles, even after losing everything.
