Content
The report concerns the situation of Afghan and Lebanese refugees who try to cross the border from the Romanian city of Timisoara to Hungary, en route to the West. Most of them fail. In Timisoara they encounter authorities failing to cope with the challenge, but also great solidarity among the people.
Excerpt from the jury’s statement
An insightful approach to a neglected side of the topic of flight and refugees. Very accessible, presented not from a distanced perspective, but from a close-up experience. Cleverly selected original sounds create images in the mind’s eye.
