On Our Doorstep (2023): reparto, argumento y streaming

Released in 2023, On Our Doorstep is a documental film directed by Thomas Laurance, running about 89 minutes.

What it’s about. On Our Doorstep delves deep into an aspect of the refugee crisis that rarely reached the press. With NGOs being blocked by red tape and the absence of any positive action by French or British authorities, the film is a behind-the-scenes look at the unprecedented grassroots movement that rose to aid the refugees in Calais, and the community that sprang up there, before it was forcefully demolished. This is the story of what happens when young and inexperienced citizens are forced to devise systems and structures to support 10,000 refugees; and are left unguided to face the moral and emotional conflicts, blurred lines and frequent grey areas of giving aid to vulnerable people. People who do not want to be there. It questions whether the aims of the volunteers were met, and whether these aims ultimately served the refugees' needs.

How it landed. With an audience score of 8.0/10, On Our Doorstep sits among the best-reviewed titles in the catalogue.
