Ahead of the release of the new drama CarnivalRow, stars Caradelevingne and Orlando Bloom tell Sky News that the themes in the film reflect today's migrant crisis and surrounding issues
On the surface, Carnival Row looks like a fantastical tale of fairies and brutal murders set against a detailed Victorian-esque backdrop.
Cara Delevingne plays a fairy, one of the so-called Fae folk who are seeking refuge in the human world, while Orlando Bloom stars as a detective considered unusual for his empathy with the migrants."When you look through the lens of fantasy you can unpack some of these really big issues," he said."We're talking about fear really aren't we, because it's fear of the other, it's fear of life with the other and what does that mean.
Delevingne says it was interesting for her to explore a subject she's not necessarily able to relate to."And especially growing up as someone who is queer in some way, always feeling like why would anyone judge anyone for not understanding or not really knowing them - it never made sense."Both actors have worked with Unicef and say this has given them a better understanding of the migrant crisis.
