Želimir Žilnik’s docu-drama, written in collaboration with his protagonists, follows the lives of refugees and migrants who are placed in asylum centres in Serbia after their dramatic journeys from war-torn and poverty-stricken areas of North Africa, Near and Middle East. Difficult travelling conditions, trafficking, human rights abuses – these are only some of the obstacles that refugees face on their long path to freedom. They go through a period of adaptation to life and social circumstances in Serbia but in most cases their goal is to reach one of the EU countries. Through the fates of individuals, the film traces the socio-political context in which the migrants find themselves.
