Wandering: A Rohingya Story (French: Errance sans retour, lit. "Wandering Without Return") is a Canadian documentary film, directed by Mélanie Carrier and Olivier Higgins and released in 2020.[1] The film is a portrait of the Kutupalong refugee camp in Bangladesh, which houses a large number of refugees from the Rohingya conflict in Myanmar.[2]

Portions of the film were screened in January 2020 as part of Errance sans retour, a multimedia exhibition on the Rohingya crisis at Quebec City's Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec in early 2020, alongside photography by Renaud Philippe.[3] The full film had its premiere at the Quebec City Film Festival on September 19, 2020.[4]
