Day 6 - Hanging On

In late summer 2015, Abdurrahman and his family engaged smugglers to take them on the next step of their journey through Hungary. A year later, Ebrima and Abdulrahim arrive safely in Italy, but don’t have the same options to travel onwards. They apply for asylum there but find themselves frustrated by the wait, the boredom and a tangle of bureaucracy. People in Greek camps, too, are disappointed in a Europe that hasn’t come close to meeting their expectations. And for those who've given up on the idea of getting to the EU, like Syrians in Turkey, it's not easy either.
