The Migrant Boat Disaster: Who Is Responsible for the 31 Lives Lost?
This documentary forensically investigates the worst migrant boat disaster in the English Channel in some thirty years, in which at least thirty one people drowned in the world's busiest shipping lane. Titled The Crossing, it asks exactly why so many lives were lost and who bears responsibility. It challenges easy narratives around asylum seekers and the dangerous journeys they take. A sobering watch on migration, the Channel and a preventable tragedy. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
