A Palestinian poet and an Italian journalist decide to transport five Syrian and Palestinian refugees to Sweden.

Driven by the desire to show that there is another, more helpful Europe that sympathises with refugees’ motives and dreams, they stage a wedding in order to trick border guards on the way. During this trip, memories are reawakened of a perilous journey to Lampedusa, of the war at home and of friends who got killed.

Movies that Matter + extra’s

This documentary film we present to you in cooperation with Movies that Matter. And even better: before screening you can enjoy a short extra! Femke Joordens from UNHCR will host a short quiz on the current situation of Syrian refugees.
