Land of Promise

Synopsis

Archive footage from newsreels, documentaries and fiction films illustrates the lasting effects immigration has had on European societies in the past 60 years. Land of Promise imparts a shared sense of loss, sympathising both with immigrants as well as the societies taking them in. Migration brings conflict, but the films looks beyond the question of guilt and lets the extraordinary images speak for themselves.
