New Documentary Explores Chaldean Experience in El Cajon

posted on: Aug 29, 2015

A new documentary explores how El Cajon became home to one of the largest groups of Chaldeans, the Christian Iraqis who fled their worn-torn country on the other side of the world.

“Chaldean Voices,” which debuted earlier this year at the San Diego Latino Film Festival, airs on KPBS at 11 p.m., Sept. 1, and 2:30 p.m. Sept. 6.

For those who have never heard of the Chaldeans, the film does a compelling job of introducing them, telling a little of their background, how they chose El Cajon, and the horrors many of them lived through before getting here.
