Occupation: Refugee (DVD)

Forget the stereotypes associated with refugees: poor peasants with ragged clothes, wandering with their families from city to city. This film will show how sudden political changes in Yugoslavia, Somalia or Tibet drive people from their homelands. We will meet a fashion designer, an artist, a doctor, a sociologist.

In other words, people like us. Against the backdrop of archival footage from conflicts in several regions, our characters will share intimate reflections on what it is like to be a refugee. We will also meet one of the most famous refugees in the world – the Dalai Lama. Even after years spent in a new place, their refugee status affects their daily lives and almost becomes a profession.
