      Audience Member Competent documentary about migrants fleeing syria by boat and the volunteers who try to rescue them from sinking rafts.. I'm sure I have seen a couple of other documentaries on this exact same subject the previous few years... this is not one of the better ones but its still decent enough. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Peter Debruge Variety Fitzgerald's beautifully photographed film isn't designed to make heroes of the rescuers. Rather, it treats the refugees as fellow humans... Feb 26, 2019 Full Review Eve Tushnet Patheos A tense, gripping, memorable film. Mar 26, 2020 Full Review Gerald Peary Arts Fuse A ripped-from-the headlines refugee film, and it's a harrowing one. Feb 21, 2019 Full Review Glenn Heath Jr. San Diego CityBeat While well-meaning, the film pales in comparison to Gianfranco Rosi's superior Fire at Sea. Feb 19, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
