Unsettled: Seeking Refuge in America
Powerfully and heartbreakingly detailing the challenging process that LGBTQ refugees must go through to find safety and security while starting over in the US, Tom Shepard’s inspiring new documentary profiles four people who have come to San Francisco to save their own lives. Over the course of this unforgettable group portrait, Subhi (from Syria), Junior (from Congo), and Mari and Cheyenne (from Angola) experience roadblocks and triumphs as they reflect on their respective histories and try to create a home for themselves in an environment that is not always welcoming. Once in San Francisco, they are met with setbacks but each maintains hope for a better future – Mari and Cheyenne record an album, Subhi starts a tour speaking on behalf of Syrian refugees and finds love, while Junior faces challenges of homelessness and gender non-conformance.

To me, this movie is perfection.
Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.
