A film featuring Syrian refugees that's inspired by their harrowing experiences - as well as lighter moments - shows how successfully integrating them is possible with a little compassion, its lead actress said on Monday.
No Monsters In Berlin, tells the story of an Indian immigrant in the German city who forges a bond with a Syrian journalist forced to flee his country’s conflict.
The award-winning feature was presented on the sidelines of a global debate on migration at the UN in Geneva, in partnership with the UN Together campaign against xenophobia and discrimination.
Co-writer and star Mala Ghedia explained the film’s key message to Daniel Johnson.
