In the fall of 2015, Steven Heighton made an overnight decision to travel to the frontlines of the Syrian refugee crisis in Greece and enlist as a volunteer. He worked on the landing beaches and in OXY - a transit camp providing simple meals, dry clothes, and a brief rest to refugees after their crossing from Turkey. 'Reaching Mithymna' is a firsthand account of the crisis and an engaged exploration of the borders that divide us and the ties that bind.
