The story of the immigration crisis is prominent in the news. Without diminishing the very real chaos and human toll of America’s broken immigration system, we should not forget the lives behind the news. Those stories call for our moral attention and serious answers rather than petty slogans. This program highlights the stories of people, such as Matar, an asylum seeker in England who gets by on bicycle delivery gigs, and the folks in Undocujoy and Between Us Women, who strive and struggle to find peace, opportunity, and safety in new lands and communities. People like those depicted in the films we present in this program are our neighbors and contribute to the life of our cities. Their stories reveal their hopes and travails, which brings life to their part in the shared narrative of our urban lives. We should be attentive to their stories, because stories like theirs make us who we are and will form what we will, as a city and a region, will become. San Francisco is a sanctuary city and is a place enlivened by its long history of migrants settling here and throughout the Bay Area and Northern California to make a life, raise families, start enterprises of all sorts, and link us in the common goal and act of flourishing.
