paradise left behind, 2021

Please contact us for screenings in schools, universities or educational events!

The island of Samos has long stood quietly at the crossroads between East and West. But for the past five years, little has changed. Refugees remain stuck in dire conditions, caught in political inaction from Brussels and Athens. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic and civil society pressure (#leavenoonebehind), no evacuation of the inhumane camps has occurred. Refugees feel forgotten, while local Greeks are left alone to manage an overwhelming situation. What once was solidarity is now turning into frustration and division. As locals strive to attract tourists to sustain their economy, stark contrasts emerge—revealing how European isolation policies determine who deserves so called paradise and who does not.
