This epic film by renowned artist Ai Weiwei is a detailed and heartbreaking exploration of the global refugee crisis.

From teeming refugee camps to perilous ocean crossings to barbed-wire borders, ‘Human Flow’ witnesses its subjects’ desperate search for safety, shelter, and justice. (2017, dir. Ai Weiwei, 140 min.)
