Over the last century, millions of people have been forced out of their homes, or have decided themselves to escape their habitat, community, and culture in the hope of a better future. Every day, different circumstances, situations, and events influence individuals to seek a safer and brighter life. Moving from place to place, these individuals—known as refugees—must also face the uncertainty of obtaining their refugee status within a given country. Particularly for those who have been persecuted for reasons related to their sexual identity, obtaining legal recognition as a refugee can be quite complex. They are asked to provide ample evidence to “prove” their sexual identity, in addition to sharing their story in a clear and sufficient manner. Drawing on themes related to traveling, movement, change, and identity, Passing Lines—an audio-based documentary—explores the tensions and difficulties that exist between the rigid structures enforced by Immigration and those traveling individuals who have made their refugee claim based on their sexual identity. Combining soundscapes and testimonies obtained from outside the judicial system, Passing Lines tells the story of three different queer refugee’s journey to Canada, exploring new grounds by emphasizing sound as traveling speech, testimony, and story within a society where visuality continues to be privileged. In passing on stories through sound, audiences are provided with a listening experience that seeks to contribute positively to their understanding of queer refugees.
