The Arrivals is a documentary about the journey of asylum seekers sent to New York City from the Texas border. The film focuses on the efforts of three small, underfunded volunteer organizations that provide support—including food, clothing, and kindness—to traumatized individuals and families seeking safety and security in the United States. The film features the leaders of these organizations: Adama Bah, Ilze Thielmann and Power Malu and their heroic efforts from first greeting migrants arriving at the Port Authority bus terminal, to eventually opening three locations in NYC where their work continues providing clothing and food, as well as legal services and a sense of security to people on this journey. It is an uplifting film about ordinary people doing extraordinary things.
