A Place to Breathe

CCF2021

Providing a humanizing look at the immigrant experience, A PLACE TO BREATHE explores the commonalities between refugees and immigrants from all walks of life through the prism of healthcare and wellness. Healing themselves by healing others, these healthcare practitioners are transcending the obstacles in their life through helping others. Combining a fly-on-the-wall approach with gorgeously rendered animation, we see firsthand the resiliency in the face of trauma that allows immigrant communities to survive and thrive.
