After Camp Moria on Lesbos had burned down in September 2020, six refugees were held responsible for the destruction of the camp in a questionable trial. The focus of the documentary is the exchange of letters between Hassan, one of the six convicted teenagers, and the director. In his letters, Hassan talks about his day-to-day life, his longings, and fears. The film uses the controversial conviction as cause to shine a particular light on the new European refugee policy and the accompanying structural marginalization. The contrast between the Greek vacation paradise – the island of Lesbos, and the newly built refugee camp which acts as a high-security camp located in an almost undisturbed island landscape, could not be more drastic. The new camp reveals how Europe looks upon refugees: with shut doors and an inhumane view of the ‘Other’.
