"A searing, intimate portrait of movement; forced, hopeful, and profoundly human. Visually, the documentary is stunning." 4/5 stars - Film Focus Online

With unprecedented access to the global migration crisis, Roads of Fire weaves together three powerful, deeply personal narratives: a human smuggler guiding refugees through the treacherous Darién Gap, an asylum seeker rebuilding her life in New York City, and volunteers working on the frontlines of a mounting humanitarian emergency. The film offers an unflinching, intimate look at the human cost of forced migration, and the resilience of those navigating one of the greatest humanitarian crises of our time.

In English and Spanish, with English subtitles.

Includes post-screening Q&A with filmmaker Nathaniel Lezra.
