Insightful documentary about what it takes from young refugees to be forced to integrate in a new country. Can you really feel at home, considering everything you have sacrificed and the personal culture that is still deeply ingrained in your system?
Short graduation documentary in which three uprooted persons try to gain insight in their integration process in the Netherlands. It is often a puzzle to them how they should relate to the new world they ended up in, while they are clearly expected to. At the same time, they have often traumatic memories of the country they fled from. Filmmaker Nour Alkheder tries to make transparent and clear what the impact is of the Dutch integration process on these young people.
