New Homeland

Directed by Barbara Kopple

Camp Pathfinder, a summer camp in the remote Canadian wilderness, is a place where generations of boys from Canada and the U.S. have come to camp, fish, canoe, and hike. Inspired by Canada’s intake of asylum seekers and the heartbreaking images of war-torn Iraq and Syria, the camp now plays host to young refugee boys, giving them the chance to heal and to begin to build a new life. Directed by two-time Academy Award® winner Barbara Kopple.
