Movies have been an important tool for transnational diasporas and/or internal/international forced migrants to express and transfer their experiences as well as to disseminate their experiences to a wider audience. We hope that the movies included in this list will provide insight about migrants’ experiences of (forced and/or voluntary) displacement, stigmatizing attitudes they face in the host societies, tensions they live with their ethnic groups (or with other ethnic groups) in the host societies, and their connections and networks with their families/countries they have left behind. The list was prepared by Esra Demirkol.
