Davis Center Docs: Screening of “Credible Fear”
2026-02-01 15:00 - 17:00 | Temple Sinai – 3100 Military Road NW, Washington, DC, United States
The Davis Center for Social Justice at Temple Sinai is proud to present the latest in our Davis Center Docs series.
Please join us for a sneak preview of several scenes from “Credible Fear”, a work-in-progress documentary about immigrant rights directed by local DC filmmaker Gabrielle Ewing. Through one woman’s harrowing personal account of escaping brutal gang violence in Guatemala, “Credible Fear” reveals a complex, rarely seen portrait of the ongoing immigration crisis in the US and explores how the asylum process consistently fails the people it was designed to protect.
A panel discussion and Q & A will follow this advance screening. Panelists include:

Gabrielle Ewing, documentary filmmaker and director of “Credible Fear”,
Amy C. Roma, Partner, Hogan Lovells, attorney featured in “Credible Fear”,
Sarah Pierce, Director of Social Policy at Third Way,
Yael Schacher, Director for the Americas and Europe, Refugees International, and
Moderated by Royce Murray, Former Assistant Secretary for Border and Immigration Policy at the Department of Homeland Security.

You don’t want to miss this incredibly moving and timely event!
Note: this event is recommended for age 18+ due to the sensitivity and nature of the material.
Please register in advance
