Description: A college student's life is given meaning when he chooses to sponsor Elias, a Salvadoran refugee, as a class project. When Elias arrives, his hosts, Sander and his family, learn what it means and feels like to be a refugee and how to relate to someone who has endured such intense personal grief. The warmth and humour of the characters invite us to embrace the situation, be moved by it, threatened by it, and to consider how we would react.
