Where Home Begins Again

Join us in celebrating the 6th Season of the Western New York Refugee Film Festival!

This season features nine critically acclaimed documentaries uplifting the voices of refugees from around the world including Ukraine, Burundi, Afghanistan, Syria, South Sudan, Venezuela, Uganda, Cambodia, Myanmar, and Colombia.

We are excited to return to our theater for the opening and closing films and offer the rest virtually!

Compelling talkbacks with directors, film stars, and experts on the refugee experience follow each screening.
