Panel Discussion + Performances, Drinks and Chats
27 November, 7pm | King’s College London, Macadam Building, Terrace Cafe
In a fast moving world, we look back at the canon in literature - Shakespeare, Dante, Chaucer - and explore their relevance for current discussions on migration, movement and asylum. A dynamic event bringing together artists, writers, academics and people with lived experience of (forced) migration.
Join us to celebrate the end of London Migration Film Festival 2024, and get to know each other’s work and perspectives on the centuries old, but never more present, theme of migration.
Featuring Majid Adin, Dr Jennifer Allsopp, and The Other Side of Hope literary magazine.

"THIS JUNGO LIFE" takes us deep inside the hidden lives of young refugees and asylum seekers from Sudan and South Sudan, living and sleeping rough on the streets of Rabat, Morocco; forced to flee violence and instability in Libya, and unable to return home due to ongoing war and conflict.
Produced in collaboration with the refugees themselves, and filmed entirely using mobile phones, this film offers unique and intimate access, providing a raw and unfiltered glimpse into the human spirit and innate drive for survival, as they fight for a better life for themselves and the families they left behind.
Dir: David Fedele & the Jungo of Rabat | Length: 1h 17m
