Xenos

In 2010, Palestinian Abu Eyad (portrayed Fleifel’s awardwinning film, A World Not Ours) flees with others from the largest Palestinian refugee camp in Lebanon, Ain el-Helweh, heading for Europe. Aided by smugglers, they flee across Syria and Turkey to Greece. But Greece is mired in serious crises, and there they get stuck. Xenos provides an intense insight into the realities and everyday existence of the refugees flooding Europe. Abu Eyad has escaped, but his dreams have become nightmares.
