Portraits of several refugees and their families who are anxiously waiting in refugee camps to see if their application for asylum is successful. There are currently approx. 600 asylumseekers living in the Czech Republic who are seeking the status of refugee from a country where war and hunger prevail. According to the current law, however, these are not sufficient reasons in order that refugee status may be granted. One legitimate reason, on the other hand, is justified fear from persecution. The film shows us the work and views of employees from the foreign police division, refugee camps and also presents schools for refugee children.
Film was supported by European association PHARE and Advisory centre for refugees of Czech Helsinki Committee.
