Gianfranco Rosi

Filmed over three years, director Gianfranco Rosi (Fire at Sea) captures everyday life on the borders between Iraq, Kurdistan, Syria, and Lebanon—places swarming with ongoing conflict and wars.

Winner of Berlin Film Festival's Golden Bear, this documentary provides an up close and personal window into the lives of refugees during the European migrant crisis.

The GRA – Grande Raccordo Anulare – is the giant circumference of road surrounding Rome, and is the setting for this cultural examination of the lives that dwell on the urban environment. Awarded the Golden Lion at the 2013 Venice Film Festival (the first documentary to be given the honour).
