Crossing the Rubicon: Passing the Point of No Return follows the current plight of refugees and their experiences, struggles, and fears.  It is meant to remind us that even as these people flee from crimes against humanity they remain human beings; aching from loss, fearing the unknown, finding tender moments in the chaos of fleeing, and banding together as a collective to help one another.
