Rohan Fernando and Tamara Segura

dramatically different culture: Fellow filmmaker Rohan Fernando said the Filipinos he met so far have embraced their new life on a remote edge of Canada. "That the surprising part, according to CBC. The people that we've spoken to love it here. Despite a dramatically different culture, landscape and climate, dozens of Filipinos have immigrated to Labrador. "Finding people here and connecting with them, it been very revealing of how humans can connect and bond no matter how different the cultures are," said filmmaker Tamara Segura, herself an immigrant from Cuba in 2010. They're very resilient and they've adapted so well and really enjoy the weather," Fernando laughed. He said the film is aiming to capture a universal theme, the desire people have to build a good life, in this case a better life, for their families. "The reasoning for being here is so strong; they want a better life for their family," Fernando said. "They recognize that that possible here." "So beyond the weather, the very human reason that they have to be here is very powerful." Newfoundland-based author Michael Crummey is writing the script for the docudrama.
