What would you do if your life were wrenched from its roots?

We Were Not Born Refugees is a reflection of humanity in its most extreme circumstances. Eight lives, eight stories of exile and resilience.
Eight people forced to flee their country to save their lives.

Memory is an echo of distances, stretching between who we were and who we have become.

Through their recollections, the protagonists reconstruct their past while forging a new present in Barcelona.

Told in a counterpoint narrative, this film is more than a collection of stories—it is a journey into identity, strength, and the unbreakable human ability to begin again.
