Best of 2019: Midnight Traveler

When the Taliban puts a bounty on Afghan director Hassan Fazili's head, he is forced to flee the country with his wife and two young daughters. Capturing their uncertain journey on his phone's camera, Fazili shows firsthand the dangers facing refugees seeking asylum. This powerful Sundance award-winning doc stitches together the heart-warming intimacy between a husband and wife caught in a dire situation while revealing one of life's great treasures: family belonging. Moving audiences around the world, this miraculous story is the kind of testament to compassion and empathy that validates why we create, present and watch documentary film.

In Arabic, English, Turkish and Bulgarian
