Refugee Film Festival: Hearing from Refugees

There is an undeniable truth in this poignant chorus from awarding winning musician of conscience, Helen Mottee.

The world, today, sees 31.7 million refugees who, too often, have been silenced by the suffering they have undergone. Their voices should be listened to, though. Their stories should be told.

In recognition of World Refugee Day, Crossroads has teamed up with the UNHCR, the United Nations’ Refugee Agency, to bring the Refugee Film Festival to Hong Kong’s screens. From June 21^st – June 26^th, we will offer a selection of films that give voice to the stories of hope, despair and resilience from refugees, worldwide.
