The subject matter: immigrant rights and the asylum seeking process
Film:
All We Carry
All We Carry follows one family’s extraordinary journey as they flee persecution from narcotraffickers in Honduras and endure months in US detention. Upon release, they are sponsored by a synagogue in Seattle and move into a borrowed mansion, all while they await their asylum verdict. Over three years, the family navigates countless life-altering and every-day moments where memory, joy, and grief collide.
Nonprofit:
