While spending some time in Copenhagen in November of 2015, independent producer Scott Carrier spoke to refugees passing through the city. Their stories were moving, and instead of flying home, Carrier followed the refugee trail backwards, to the Greek island of Lesbos. Over the course of a week, he asked them, "Why did you leave home? Where are you going? What has happened along the way?"
