FROM NORTH TO SOUTH

In December 2015, I received a call from documentary filmmaker Tamara Park asking me to accompany her on a three week trek from north to south, starting in Finland and ending in Greece. We met and interviewed Syrian and Iraqi refugees who had fled their homes in hopes of beginning a new life in Europe.
