Life as a permanent state of waiting, a situation in which thousands of families have found themselves in recent years, is portrayed without exaggeration, with tenderness and with a focus on a teenager who immediately adapts to new situations but lives with the daily anxiety of acceptance.
Synopsis
13 year old Ramin and his Iranian family have been living in a refugee centre in Finland. Just as Ramin starts to enjoy the school holidays, the family receives the terrible news their asylum application has been denied. The Mehdipours file a final appeal, and they continue with their everyday lives, trying to keep a positive attitude despite the looming danger of deportation. As Ramin starts the new school year, every moment, every friendship will be more precious than ever.
