The Critical Think Tank is pleased to invite you to their second movie night!
They will be screening Souleymane’s Story, followed by a guided discussion engaging the film from a range of critical perspectives. Our conversation will explore migration law, the gig economy, the limits of humanitarianism, and the global inequalities shaping contemporary migration governance.
Souleymane’s Story follows a Guinean immigrant navigating life in Paris while preparing for a make-or-break asylum interview. The movie weaves together the daily struggle in the gig-economy with the bureaucratic and psychological pressures of asylum procedures, offering an intimate and unsparing portrayal of undocumented migrant's vulnerability, and resilience. The Guardian wrote a review of Souleymane's Story.
We look forward to seeing you there and to a thoughtful discussion afterwards. Please register here. Feel free to bring your own snacks!
