Synopsis
About a year ago, Moria, Europe's largest refugee camp, became home to 38 year old Nasim from Afghanistan. Together with her husband Shamsullah, their two sons and her extended family, Nasim tries to manage the rough camp life while starting to question her unhappy marriage. As her family pushes her to start a new life independent from her husband, Nasim struggles because of her fears and insecurities. She needs to pass her asylum interview together with Shamsullah whose past she barely knows. When a fire destroys the entire camp, Nasim witnesses Europe turning a blind eye towards Moria again.
