Boat People

Kjell Boersma et Thao Lam
2023 | 9 min

Bande-annonce


As a child in Vietnam, Thao’s mother often rescued ants from bowls of sugar water. Years later they would return the favour. Boat People is an animated documentary that uses a striking metaphor to trace one family’s flight across the turbulent waters of history.
