About Thrown into Canada

“The story of Canada's first major non-European refugee movement”

Thrown into Canada is a 2022 English documentary film directed by Aleem Karmali. It runs 77 minutes. The cast is led by Idi Amin, Salma Lakhani and Michael Molloy.

This documentary explores the history of Canada’s first major migration of non-European and non-white refugees who arrived in 1972 when Ugandan President Idi Amin expelled all South Asians from the country. Their story of struggle and hope became part of Canada’s conversations about refugees and cultural pluralism, and informed the Canadian response to future refugee movements.
