Only 21,000 Syrian refugees out of five million have been accepted into the United States since 2011. This is Home follows four families sent to resettle in Baltimore in 2016. They have just eight months to find jobs, learn English, and become self-sufficient. The clock starts right when they land. Despite good intentions, a vast cultural divide prevents the new arrivals and the Americans trying to help them from truly understanding each other. For Syrians like Khaldoun, who was tortured and left physically disabled, and children like Mohammad, who suffers from PTSD, their needs extend far beyond lessons in proper job attire.
Halfway through the process, President Trump issues a travel ban on all refugees from Muslim-majority countries, and suddenly their lives, and the safety of loved ones still trapped in Syria, become all the more perilous. With much-needed empathy, filmmaker Alexandra Shiva reveals the inherent decency of a displaced community desperate for help within a country increasingly hostile to principles of inclusion and opportunity.
译文(3): 自2011年以来，500万叙利亚难民中只有21000人被美国接纳。2016年，四个家庭被送往巴尔的摩重新安置，这就是家。他们只有八个月的时间找工作，学习英语，自给自足。他们一着陆，钟就开始了。尽管用意很好，但巨大的文化鸿沟阻碍了新移民和试图帮助他们真正理解彼此的美国人。对于像Khaldoun这样饱受折磨、身体残疾的叙利亚人，以及像Mohammad这样患有创伤后应激障碍的儿童来说，他们的需求远远超出了穿着得体的工作服的课程。
