Saving Dolma: This film reflects on the lives of female migrant domestic workers, one of the most vulnerable groups of workers, and the issues they face in the Middle East.

The story of Dolma Sherpa, a Nepali domestic worker accused of killing a Filipino co-worker and sentenced to death, opens a window for advocates, migrant workers, and families to share their experiences of resilience and struggle in the face of severe challenges that migrant workers endure.- Open Society Foundation


Tres Tristes Tigres (3 Sad Tigers): Migration can provide hope for escaping poverty. Yet many migrants know about the other side of that hope – suffering. Leaving behind their homes and families they submit themselves to the mercy of middlemen at home and employers in distant countries. Tens of thousands become indebted and impoverished as a consequence. This film tells the story of three men from the rural village of Rajbari, Bangladesh who traveled to the Middle East.
