This Oscar-winning documentary examines the conditions for Jewish refugees after World War II, from their aspirations to emigrate to the reality of continued antisemitism. Many Holocaust survivors wished to relocate to the British Palestine but were often detained due to British immigration laws. Their strive to escape poverty and detainment led to the creation of the modern State of Israel.
