Im a documentary filmmaker and a former refugee from kosovo. I was forced to leave home in the early ninetys when i was 18 years old at the start of the balkan wars. An independent republic when i was growing up it was the province of communist. This was my grandmothers home one of the terms of it was put into the ground under the orders of the serbian president slobodan milosevic. Destroyed because the majority of kosovos nichol penas like me wanted independence from the serbian state that dominated us and subjected us to persecution. This year is the 30th anniversary of my refugee journey the time for looking back and take in strong. I know full lungs of hope i 1st came here as a teenager in 1904 i will always be grateful to the u. K. For granting me asylum and british citizenship. And my family full of me in 1999 but i still have questions for them but i need to ask. And i want to find out what kind of welcome Asylum Seekers receive when they see sunshine in europe. I think i was 15 or 16 the 1st time when i joined the protest the students off camera a few people who were wounded and i have seen people you know. Blood on the streets and all the students who come this way you know on one occasion where there wasnt an american of the negation here i was just coming up here on this truck i was just here and i got shot i fell down and i literally felt like i was that with all the students and in from the me screaming hes alive hes alive you know. But yeah i was lucky thank you know it was very rare of them to use plastic bullets with their own with the newsreel my mom. To sleep is an old school friend. We were both forced to escape at the same time for the same reason were having greased our 18th birthday as we were due to be conscripted into the sort of you nor me meaning fighting for the enemy so you either had to fight the courts or the boston. Or die trying to desert so you were big you know between 2 fires your era crossfire and thats how how a couple of guys upon you know about died there were stopped for a routine check up police saw their i. D. s and they disappeared and then. They got killed in in the war in boston just a few weeks before i left a soldier was sun back and how meticulous close yeah you know and it was state secret you know so they were not supposed to have literally on the official letters that they got from the army the guy committed suicide and the long bullets in his back was not bullets they found 24 bullets on his back you know he was riddled with bullets but i remember so its like you know yeah i mean this was this was kind of the final straw and it was there was no way either physical roy was going to be cannon fodder for the serbs. The decision to escape was easy the actual parting was hard im never asked my parents how they felt when i left i visit them at their other home here in pristina. Im hoping the memories wont be too painful for them. John warner one of us of course does care now. On the moon was it me thought to quietly during their news months that neda but you may not be unleashed the school to scoop it out near the new school at the back to wherever they mean it took court you know the. Most record to. Me of the book and my need to get there early. This mythical. Juice would then us that the museum must be a source of supporters and say heres a wish zone so you can leave when the old pop and the archie comes only one muttered to me come here again it was of course quite on the scale now but all prick and i said to him consume skinned it up of dark water mark pesce and more are greatly near the. Great. Advance or. An increase in trouble version of what he does that is super shot tick he had researched. Checked the tumor they did. Muswell me up at mommy to do that the answer my parts made to just about and after who knows what would have happened if i stayed. I probably wouldnt be alive today. The idea of not knowing thats what kills him but you dont know if its going to be for a week for a month or a year for 30 years you know its just incredible i was only 18. And you never know if you can ever see your family again. To escape cause so i hit in the back of an empty petrol tank of driven by a family friend if i was discovered i knew id almost certainly be shocked. To be honest i was scared like really scared. Where the border is now it was like the must have checkpoints you know all the Serbian Forces the police. Have what a relief when the army just passed a border you know. Although the e. U. Still had internal borders back then i made it to safety with relative ease. A far cry from what refugees and you are today. A lot changed for the war in syria hundreds of thousands of new Asylum Seekers were created displaced families fleeing the bombing. Most European Countries responded by closing the borders. Then in march 26th seen the e. U. Made a deal with turkey paying 3000000000 euros to prevent Asylum Seekers from crossing into europe. But tens of thousands each year still a time to journey illegally risking their lives to get the. Most to successfully complete the perilous journey by land pass through the greek city of the saloniki. Thats where i meet refugees seeking help from a medical charity. What are these tickets for us if i was right and 4 doctor. Some have walked hundreds of kilometers to get here. What do you say that there was that she had done that killing at 6 her killing of the one song. Dr i guess how many days if you walked out 1717 days yes. I got off and we are so solved by my feet still very. Most of the refugees have stories of several previous failed attempts to cross the turkish you border as well as human rights abuses by men in uniform i think me being pointed i mean they cant hold them and it must be quite honestly. I think 111 hears my voice it will be between 3 times take my money this is one that has this happened in the whole of the. Women going and. Im horrified by what these guys have to go through not to use to get to europe. By comparison my own journey to escape was easy. Once out of serbia i was able to go safely by bus to sweden i didnt have to hide walk for days or worry about being killed at any other countrys border. Most Asylum Seekers come to greece a small boat smuggled across from turkey. Im heading for less force a greek oil and around 6 kilometers from the Turkish Coast it hosts the largest refugee camp in europe. The morea camp was intended as a short term Registration Center for Asylum Seekers waiting to transfer us where. It has capacity for 3000 people but over 13000 are living here and the numbers are growing. More stay in the no risk belay area known as the jungle this man from afghanistan arrived here 3 weeks earlier. Your kids are. Shot. To flacco calling you one of them if i say that those are my reasons why i. Dont get what is our morning. Meeting go on and it. Is i can live with him and he was older than me and some of you some come over to finland missler i want more than just in the dominican. With. A woman in one of yeah i can offer to check magazine. Also from im going to stand once to show me very lives. On the way we pass the toilet seat has to Service Hundreds of others. I want. The number. The stench is overwhelming. My goal this is not. How do you do not sending him. Last so you know to be there in case you did in the end she had island. Fame holes in it you may want to how long youre supposed to stay here do you know. Interviewing what island by the yak monkeyed have to mean to be a moron of that about a high from. Each of us has been here for 2 months but are still waiting for the e. U. Funded cash assistance refugees are entitled to. And what. Im soon surrounded by refugees eager to tell me about the lack of medical help in the county but want to give this another more psych eval far. From dr no no doctor thats just one thing you get out of it that the certain no that wont last and this is for one month. And what is your problem what is the back. Talk on the phones other people was horrible thank you good luck on hold thank you thank you another afghan refugee asked me to follow him. Michael youre very yeah right and to be a refuse you. Know i had who you know i escaped. From punk and its rock thank you yeah i was low the 3rd there if you go in florida you kill your server your 5 month so this is your 4 children. You know i dont care you know. His family arrived 3 days earlier tonight i was sad i mean the story had me that i know what it means to be taught english knowing. The family called by their own food without cash assistance. And theres a big problem after working. You know with any like you know. This is when youre going to get the new color. Car so yes its my my goal this is shocking and otis is supposed to learn how youre going to survive what the guy had asthma how to go going to match what it was about Michael Chiklis and that was what i like my brother who was involved in a battle which i dont know and so can you leave from here. Your story yes its stuck here i hope it works out and i hope you will go away as soon as possible. The greek government has found only for me behind the fence inside the main camp. Its called by police. But videos shot by refugees reveal conditions inside the compound no better if not worse than outside the only obvious difference is the some refugees have metal containers to live in rather than tents i wasnt allowed inside the camp to speak to people but some women came to the courtyard of a local charity to meet me. Give from our country is to be saved but we will be here. Soon which do not disagree with some sauce 100 head many believe us understand as thomas out of a chest to my son to test. First if you can so much amazon and you to call me and call me a skeptic if you have a have other mustnt on that im with im going to suffer hazell would have a heart that has a well im going to suffer less than that to me to suffer as i get much out of a whole history of us of a cousin of our children live machine he was playing it when carl was crushing with him he killed. You have to appreciate trying to connect or just get of that under so hush the con its a bad night charge not charge 100. 00 more but it does some market evoking after they get and a much ado surprise and i wish i might have official bizarre not but a bit to some of the citizens sure that really its a little bit severed that our countrys and but they cannot make a good place for us. You. Women and children are particularly vulnerable in the marine camp. Many are sick but most go untreated as there arent enough doctors. You know so here is where the service is over but i dont think i think the national and your doctors without borders. Invite me to visit the mobile childrens clinic to get this for myself the scale of fun with meat. D. M. S. Of course in nature on the island you have a posse cant hide his frustration too was the. Its a game and the deterrence policy. Keeping 15200 people in a camp like this is just unacceptable women children pregnant women and accompanied minors people with disabilities lack of food lack of medical services i mean its really unnecessary well you know all this misery it is absolutely avoidable it brings shame to everybody in europe to think that europe cannot cope up with this number of people they cannot absorb this number the people have to suffer in this way it is unacceptable the degree of the as a crowding is the Vulnerable People they really need to be nice to people with psychiatric problems need to be moved out people that are victims of torture need to be moved out of the camp people with Severe Health problems if people in the camps suffer cant recall a treatment that are not being treated at this point in time i mean im just thinking and you go through those symptoms it must be held. As a healthy person without the experiences of having been right there having been told you know heavy lived in a war site was placed in the Registration Center of madea in a manner of wakes im going to need Mental Health support. You have to get if i show no no no im just saying im trying to think of the you know when i was you know when i was going around the council you know i just really felt like how hollow north is this possible you know its were like 20192020 almost you know europe in europe and its just its just crazy its ridiculous is. Later i meet up with muhammad lee young learn from the camp. Being in the more you can see it hard for example where when we want to take a break 1st we should wake up 6 am and until 8 am we are in the line to take just one small cake its not enough for one to adults 1st and yet known we should sense 2 hours to take your food and winning we should stand 2 hours to spend 6. 6 hours we are ascending into line to eat food its really hard and when i arrived here about 3 weeks ago. 10 days in this street not in the tent because they said that we dont give tends to the single month and most of the people wants to run away from here because here is the same us hill its really hard to. Find you that there are. Valid. Point you know what you can live. From. Then make the move. Here you need to have to run a very remarkable people here but then there will be much to give up on it. Because of their mori accounts dont give us enough food most of the refugees force so rob fruits from the garden so thats why you people are hostile and look yes because if he says i think. I want to say thats asked so thats possible i live here but greek government still insists us to go so you start here yes im stuck here and why did you have to leave a lot of problems for example my cousin fighting the taliban he died in the taliban yes so to have a. Thank you so. You know dont let depression get you. Things wont change you. This is me when i was 18 so you had a fair call in this picture yeah so yeah samys yeah i left as well i dont know if anything i laughed so much i was a bit i then yes. I feel so sorry for moment when i escaped to sweden i was the same age i didnt have to sleep in the streets i had relatives to stay with. And the worst abuse i had to suffer was people yelling is me ok me of the swans tell him go home lexical because i had told him not blown like this. Theres someone else unless of course im keen to meet hes the arch and. All the paintings i dont buy refugees artist every come soon is founder of the hope center and geo on the island.
