The Film
Synopsis
When Ahmad's life comes under threat by the Taliban in Afghanistan, he leaves his family behind for survival, without saying goodbye, and ends up in Europe's worst Refugee Detention Camp, Moria.
Ahmad joins forces with Canadian filmmaker Jawad Mir (Only 78) to document his journey in the detention centre, with hopes he will eventually be granted asylum in Europe or Canada.
Through the stress of leaving his family, and the anxiety of not knowing how many years it will take, Ahmad strives to maintain his determination while making the lives of those around him better — while dealing with the pain his family may suffer at the hands of the Taliban.
The film is an odyssey, seen through Ahmad's eyes, about Afghanistan's 40 years of history and the pitfalls of immigration that have left millions homeless.
