All We Carry, a powerful documentary released earlier this year, follows a young Honduran family as they flee persecution—migrating in cargo trains across Mexico, claiming asylum at the US border, and enduring separation in detention before being released in Seattle. A small synagogue in West Seattle, Kol HaNeshamah, sponsors the family for two years while they await the final decision on their asylum case. This documentary bears witness to the everyday moments of Magdiel, Mirna and their son along the way, and as they settle in Seattle. Read more about their story here.
