Paper Children explores America’s invisible refugee crisis through the eyes of one Miami family who navigates a broken system with unwavering resilience.  The four siblings and their parents work hard at a new start together, as far away from the frightening gang violence in their native Honduras as possible.  As they begin to heal from past trauma, the thorny complexities of the US immigration system lead to crushing setbacks that once again threaten their sense of security. Through it all, the family holds on to their faith and loving spirit—they’ve risked too much to give up hope. 

Q&A with filmmaker Ali Codina and subjects Fernando and Gracia Cuzzi (Fernando’s representative) Sunday, June 14th at 4pm
