The Journey is a fictional story that illustrates some of the struggles a female refugee has overcome after being forced to flee her home to escape conflict. Without ever showing her face, the film depicts a story of resilience and hope which then turns into athletic success via the Refugee Olympic team.
Created by agency Don’t Panic and directing collective Pantera, the film was made in consultation with two refugee athletes hoping to compete at this year’s games, Rose Nathike Lokonyen and Asif Sultani, as well as the UNHCR and the UN Refugee Agency. The intention throughout was to create an accurate, if dramatised, portrayal of a refugee’s journey.
