Institute of Criminology Public Screening: '8 Days, 8 Borders'

Film Screening: 1:00pm - 2:00pm

Networking Event: 2:00pm - 3:00pm

Please join The Centre for the Study of Global Human Movement and The Cambridge Migration Society for a screening of the award-winning documentary film '8 Days, 8 Borders'.

'8 DAYS, 8 BORDERS' (61 mins) A single mother shows us the consequences of closing America’s doors to families fleeing war. With no answer to her application for resettlement in the US, and every other path to safety closed off, a smuggler’s raft to Europe was the only way out. 8 Borders, 8 Days is her story; the intimate details of why a fiercely-determined mother is willing to risk her children’s lives for a better future and an immersive experience of their eight-day journey to safety.
