Join us for a shorts program exploring the power of imagination and creativity for young immigrants. These powerful short films feature young immigrants from many different countries, and while they share challenges such as trouble with making friends, understanding a new language, or feeling comfortable in their new home, they demonstrate the resilience of imagination and creativity as a way to find peace, make new friends, explore new ideas, and understand their new home.

Films included in this screening are: Kotoba, Home, Karam Camera, Unsaid, and The Old Young Crow

A filmmaker Q&A following the screenings will feature Liam LoPinto, Director of Karam Camera and The Old Young Crow.
