SFNIJ invites you to a benefit
documentary screening of
"Every refugee and asylum-seeker
has a story to tell."
UNSETTLED is a feature-length documentary sharing stories of LGBTQ refugees and asylum-seekers resettling in the U.S. The film follows four asylum-seekers, from the Congo, Angola, and Syria. They’ve landed in the purported “gay mecca” of San Francisco, yet even there, building a new life in an adopted nation is a precarious undertaking. What are the costs persecuted immigrants pay for seeking refuge? And how are everyday Americans stepping forward to help those most in need?
Join a Zoom discussion with filmmaker Tom Shepard on October 15 at 7:00pm.
Donations through Eventbrite will go to commissary funds for incarcerated LGBTQ+ asylum seekers. Those who register will receive links to the film and discussion.
