'Into the Fire' premiere.

https://www.facebook.com/events/160498170781797/?fref=ts
   
A hard hitting documentary which shows the plight of refugees and migrants in recession hit Athens, Into The Fire is a film with a difference.

Greece is in crisis. But the economic crisis is not the only one. An asylum crisis has gripped the country at this time of severe austerity. And it hits the most vulnerable: Refugees, including minors, who have left everything behind fleeing their countries to find safety.

In Greece, they are left destitute and on the streets, unable to apply for asylum and threatened by escalating racist attacks. Trapped in Greece, they have one message for Europe and the rest of the world: Let us leave!

Screening followed by discussion with filmmakers and Habib Rahman from the Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants. Chaired by Sham Qayyum, SOAS.
