A first-hand account of the perilous journey made by a group of Syrian refugees. Traversing land and sea on an old fishing boat manned by smugglers, the nail-biting journey leads to Europe where the refugees disperse.

The Crossing shows us the lengths to which people go to find safety and forge their own destiny.
