David Aronowitsch Ahmed Abdullahi 2020

Idomeni is a place suspended in time, and the film is shaped by scenes from the parallel lives of adults and children in the camp. The children do not go to school but live in their own world and take care of each other, having little contact with their surrounding. The film catches their bubble and shows they are tomorrow’s Europe.
