Strangers No More

2010 · Karen Goodman and Kirk Simon · 40m

Strangers No More is a 2010 short documentary film about a school in Tel Aviv, Israel, where children from 48 countries and diverse backgrounds come together to learn. The parents of these children are among over 300,000 transnational migrant workers who have arrived in Israel—some with government authorization and others undocumented. The film follows three students as they struggle to acclimate to life in Israel and slowly unveil their stories of hardship. Strangers No More was shot on location at the Bialik-Rogozin School in Tel Aviv.
