LEJOS DE CASA
Mexiko 2022 – Director: Carlos Hernández Vázquez – Original with English subtitles
Every year thousands of minors from Latin America send asylum applications to the USA. The children and young people often travel long distances unaccompanied across the continent only to wait for months for a decision in one of the Mexican border towns. A hostel in Tijuana, run by a dedicated team, offers them care and support. Pablo Bücheler
