Jambika Boards ‘Unwelcomed’ as the Chilean Film Heads to Hot Docs (EXCLUSIVE)


"Unwelcomed" has been acquired for worldwide distribution by Jambika Docs, ahead of its world premiere in the International Competition at Hot Docs.

Set against the backdrop of northern Chile’s most violent anti-immigration protest, “Unwelcomed” journeys through the majestic Andean Highlands, Atacama Desert, and coastal settlements to reveal the human face of Latin America’s largest migration crisis. With nearly 8 million Venezuelans displaced—the second-largest migration globally and the largest ever within South America—the film captures rising tensions, cultural clashes, and radicalization in Chile’s border communities. “This gives us so much motivation for the upcoming phase of circulation, with the hope that the film continues to grow and reach new territories and audiences, resonating deeply and generating impact.”
