MAISON DES SYRIENS

MAISON DES SYRIENS

Information on the activity

Dates to come

In Saint-Ubalde, a rural hamlet in the Portneuf region, preparations are underway. A family of Syrian refugees, just one among millions displaced by the war, will arrive soon. And just about everyone, especially the sponsorship committee, wants everything to be perfect. But the arrival date keeps getting pushed back. With every passing day that the family doesn’t appear, questions keep coming up. In this smart, lucid and frank reflection on hospitality, coexistence and identity, Nadine Beaudet and Christian Mathieu Fournier immerse us in the lives of ordinary people, shedding light on some of our world’s most pressing issues.
