The Waldo County Peace and Social Justice Forum in collaboration with the Belfast Free will library present this special documentary from the National Film Board of Canada. The film is in French with English subtitles, 1 hour and 15 minutes.
Synopsis:
How can refugee children integrate into Quebec’s school system, given the unspeakable violence they’ve experienced? Following a psychologist specializing in conflict-related trauma, Unspoken Tears pays tribute to the admirable resilience and survival strategies of these “small adults,” whose spirit the bombs and camps have not completely crushed, at a time when it is vital to raise awareness in Western societies of migration-related issues and children’s rights.
