Letters2Maybe is an inspirational, integrative film which touches on refugees experiences with their new life in America. Unfortunately, there aren’t any positives these refugees have experienced. One of the interviewee’s, Nancy, even states that coming to America is a “trap” and it’s better for your soul to die on your own land, rather than in a foreign country. This film touches on the metaphorical letter to our world on how we can better articulate a message touching on power, opportunity, and justice. Throughout the duration of the film, the screen floods with birds flying away. My personal take on this is, flying to “freedom” and/or the birds portray a way to send a message to their loved ones. Many of these people aren’t able to travel back to their birth country and there is a level of frustration that comes along with this misfortune. Sharim is able to grab the views of many refugees in diverse communities, so then they are able to have a voice and vocalize their opinions.
