Canadian Journalists for Free Expression (CJFE), Sheridan College and Willing Mind Productions present “So Far From Home”, an OMNI Television documentary film that offers a unique window in to the world of five journalists who did report from these dangerous places. The film was written and directed by Vladimir Kabelik, a documentary filmmaker and professor in the School of Animation, Arts & Design.
