Two
refugees travel from the Pakistan/Afghan border through
a multitude of countries in an effort to get asylum in Britain.
All manner of means are employed to get to Britain - all
of them hazardous and arduous.
This film engages the viewer through its realism - it is
almost a documentary in look and feel. It was made on a
handheld digital camera using available light, with an unprofessional
cast and dialogue that was mostly improvised. It is a human
story of our time and one that demands to be seen if only
to counter the media hysteria normally associated with refugees.
