Dear Habib focuses tells the real story of an unaccompanied minor in the United Kingdom. It focuses on his experience as a young man transitioning into adulthood, dealing with the loss of home and family, further complicated by the threat of deportation.
The film is directed by Majid Adin (Elton John’s Rocketman) and Team Tumult. Majid brings his own perspective to bear in this film, himself a refugee and asylum seeker. He travelled across Europe in 2015, spending six months in ’The Jungle’ camp in Calais.
Team Tumult worked closely with Majid at Feed Me Light to realise this touching film about a young man trying to build a life in a new country.
