The event is free but donations are accepted and will go directly to the refugee families expected in Rutland this summer

A single mother shows us the consequences of closing America’s doors to people fleeing war. With no answer to her application for resettlement in the US, and every other safe option out of reach, a smuggler’s raft to Europe was the only way out. 8 Borders, 8 Days is the intimate details of why a mother is willing to risk her children’s lives for a better future and an immersive experience of their eight-day journey to safety.
