They came aboard rickety boats or hidden in the bowels of transport trucks. These children have immigrated alone, without their parents. In 2018, Spain received more than 13,000 migrant children – mostly from Morocco or sub-Saharan Africa. While they mainly land in Andalusia, most of them dream of going to another Spanish region: Catalonia. The Catalan child welfare services offer them a reception and protection system that is unparalleled in Europe. On the heights of Barcelona, 47 migrant children live in the “Mas Pins” reception center. In that environment, they have the freedom to live as any other child: they go to the local school, learn a trade, play football... They have fled violence and misery, taken dangerous paths, crossed the Mediterranean... And now, thousands of kilometers away from their families, helped by their educators, their teachers or the staff of the center, they aspire to become full-fledged European citizens. The Catalan protection services help them from the time they arrive until they are 21 years old.

In which John Green teaches you about the beginning of the so-called Age of Discovery. You've probably heard of Christopher Columbus, who "discovered" America in 1492, but what about Vasco da Gama? How about Zheng He? Columbus gets a bad rap from many modern historians, but it turns out he was pretty important as far as the history of the world goes. That said, he wasn't the only pioneer plying the seas in the 1400s. In Portugal, Vasco da Gama was busy integrating Europe into the Indian Ocean Trade by sailing around Africa. Chinese admiral Zheng He was also traveling far and wide in the largest wooden ships ever built. Columbus, whether portrayed as hero or villain, is usually credited as the great sailor of the 15th century, but he definitely wasn't the only contender. What better way to settle this question than with a knock-down, drag-out, no holds barred, old-fashioned battle royal? We were going to make it a cage match, but welding is EXPENSIVE.

She lived in Cairo, Paris and New York, but died in an old age home in Givatayim. She was admired and beautiful, but only few knew her during her life and even less after she had passed away. She was the first to write of Levantine and Mizrachi identities, as no one before her had done. Director Rafael Balulu traces the footsteps of Levantine thinker and author Jacqueline Kahanoff and through encounters with her elderly friends in Paris and leading intellectuals in the Mizrachi discourse in Israel, he not only draws a portrait of this impressive thinker, but also discovers the fate of Levantine identity in Israel as a cultural option for pride and and honor. The 14th film of the “Hebrews” project.

In 2001, Fahed left Algeria for England, settling in, of all places, Grimsby. Nearly two decades later, after marrying, working two jobs to pay the bills, and picking up a distinct Northern English accent, Fahed decides he wants to go back to his place of birth. But while his address in Algeria has remained fixed, the concept of home, he soon finds, is far more fluid. Trapped between two countries, Fahed is also between two cultures: one he's worked to assimilate into and one he nostalgically longs for but can't, in reality, face.
