The Sundance Film Series will bring In This World to theaters on September 19th.
“In This World” follows the hazardous journey of two Afghan boys as they travel from Pakistan through Iran, Turkey, Italy, France and the UK in search of refuge in London. Based on true stories, Winterbottom, using the immediacy of digital video to full effect, strikes a balance between the narrative and documentary elements of the film. Intended to bring attention to the public debate over the issue of refugees, the film tells a moving and dramatic story that reveals the desperate measures people take to escape persecution and the life threatening conditions they find themselves in along the way.
