A series about the AZC (Asylum Seekers Centre) in Zutphen. An unusual, intimate portrait of people who live together under a glass bell jar. About their joy, sadness, and sometimes despair. Every aspect is highlighted, from the desire to belong to the emotional bonds that develop between residents and employees.
With us at the AZC capture the human stories - the joy and sadness, and also the despair, that are hidden behind the facade of the asylum seekers' center in Zutphen. For a year, the doors opened for us and we followed residents between hope and fear, in their desire for acceptance and a free and safe existence. Employees share their dedication and efforts to make this transition as smooth as possible. An unusual, intimate portrait of very 'ordinary' people, who live together under a glass bell jar.
