'Lifeboat' Official Trailer
Volunteers from a German non-profit risk the waves of the Mediterranean to pluck refugees from sinking rafts pushing off from Libya in the middle of the night. "Lifeboat" puts a human face on one of the world's greatest contemporary global crises and provides a spark of hope surrounding how civil society can intervene in the refugee crisis in a meaningful way. "Lifeboat" is a 2019 Oscar nominee for best short subject documentary. "Lifeboat" is streaming now at The New Yorker's Screening Room.
