Charleston Jewish Filmfest presents "RUNNING ON SAND"
Aumari, a young Eritrean refugee who lives in Israel, is caught by the immigration police, and deported. While in the airport, he manages to escape at the last minute and runs straight into the hands of Maccabi Netanya's football fans that mistake him for the new Nigerian striker who was supposed to land that day. When Aumari goes back to being a refugee will someone stand by his side, and will he manage, for the first time in his life, to stop running?
