Synopsis
Sonita Gale's documentary takes a deep dive into Britain's complicated relationship with immigration. The film explores the lives of international students, members of the Windrush generation, and ‘highly-skilled migrants’ who have been challenged by government policies, and a hostile reception that is not always welcoming of their presence, alongside the added pressures of the Covid-19 pandemic. Through personal anecdotes and emotional interviews, the effects of Brexit, discrimination and law present questions about citizenship, identity, belonging, and fraternity?
