About this Event
About the film
The documentary film Wandering, a Rohingya Story is an immersive, poetic and powerful look into the biggest refugee camp in the world, the Kutupalong refugee camp. In 2017, within a few months, 700,000 people of the Rohingya Muslim minority fled Myanmar (formerly Burma) to escape genocide and seek asylum in Bangladesh. Between poetry and nightmares, food distribution and soccer games, the Rohingyas of Kutupalong camp bear witness to their daily lives and to the ghosts of the past.
The film will be introduced by our Rohingya whānau, with a brief about her work with Rohingya communities, and ways to be part of the solidarity movement. Koha from this screening will go to a collective selected by our whānau.
