Contents/Summary

Summary
This is the story of Roma refugees and asylum-seekers who left their war-torn country and spent over ten years in Germany. In 2002 the German authorities sent many of these people back to Serbia and Montenegro, believing that there was no longer any reason for them to stay. In the fall of 2002 in Belgrade, Kenedi, working as a cabdriver, meets people who, like him, have been deported. They were woken by the police in the middle of the night, torn from their jobs and schools. Arriving in the former Yugoslavia, they again face a void - just like when they emigrated to Germany. The children, who speak only German and not a word of Serbian, feel displaced in their former native country, turning to the camera to say hello to their German schoolmates. An unusual view from outside the EU borders about the daily fate of refugees and the actual consequences of political decisions and bureaucratic proceedings.
