In October, my husband David and father went to Bulgaria. Their goal was the refugee camp in Harmanli, on the Turkish/Bulgarian border. Their purpose was to interview Syrian refugees and learn their story.
The result is a short film called Along the Path. Where my passion has always been the written word, my husband is feeling a call toward visual stories. I’m so proud of all he’s doing and praying I can support him as he has always supported me in my dreams.
In Along the Path, you’ll hear from a variety of refugees at the camp–a few who had only been in Bulgaria a few months. A few who had been there for years and had gone from being refugees to being volunteers who help other refugees. And you’ll hear from me, in the studio–my film debut, LOL. (I’m a STAR! Ahem. Cough, cough.)
If you have thirty minutes and wonder what these millions of refugees are experiencing, why they’re leaving their homes, and what they expect from the future, I encourage you to watch Along the Path. Hearing what these people have gone through has forever changed my outlook on the situation. I know it will do the same for others.
This is great Roseanna.
Blessings, Tina
