Thrown into Canada

This documentary explores the history of Canada’s first major migration of non-European and non-white refugees who arrived in 1972 when Ugandan President Idi Amin expelled all South Asians from the country. Their story of struggle and hope became part of Canada’s conversations about refugees and cultural pluralism, and informed the Canadian response to future refugee movements.

Director: Aleem Karmali

Cast: Idi Amin, Salma Lakhani, Michael Molloy, Shezan Muhammedi, Mobina Jaffer
