Do You Want to Cross the Sea - Home is a journey, not a place

In search of a better life, a Darfurian asylum seeker leaves Israel behind to reunite with his wife and daughter in Canada.

Settling in a remote town, he begins building a new family, yet an unshakable feeling of incompleteness lingers. This is a story of resilience, love, and a man’s relentless journey to find where he truly belongs—a journey that proves home is not just a destination but a profound connection.
