The International Students: First 48 Hours documentary chronicles selected international students departing their countries of origin to the days after they arrive in Toronto. Surprises, anxiety, joy, tips and funny revelations all describe the incredible trajectory of learners who have left their home. This film resulted from a partnership between the Innovation Hub and the Centre for International Experience. Members of the University of Toronto community are invited to join us for the premiere screenings of the documentary short, which is intended to share what it means to be new to a university, a culture and a country. Some of the students from the documentary will be participating in a moderated panel after each screening and will discuss some of their post-production thoughts as they now look back at their initial experiences.
