| Description |
|
This lesson plan accompanies the film Well-Founded Fear (108 minutes) which offers a view into the world of the immigration authorities in the United States who have to make decisions about whether or not they grant asylum and "reveal the dramatic real-life stage where human rights and American ideals collide with the nearly impossible task of trying to know the truth". The lesson plan is in debate format and addresses background of refugee problems and its international context, refugee law and its international context, and the interpretation of laws by immigration officials. To get a copy of the film write to: Camerini-Robertson, Inc. 141 West 28th Street Suite 6B New York, NY 10001 Ph: +1 (212) 594-2522 Fax: +1 (212) 594-0101 |
