Contents/Summary
- Summary
- A film about Zurich told from the perspective of those who live on the margins of society: sans papiers, rejected asylum seekers, foreign vagrants, illegal prostitutes searching for a home here in one way or another. The focus of the film is on the Palestinian author Farid Dhamra, a rejected asylum seeker and his impending deportation to Israel. He keeps a diary, jotting notes about the shattered dreams of migrants who live more or less illegally in Zurich -- and in isolation.
