BERLIN REFUGEE CAMP

Political refugees erect a camp in Berlin to protest against the violations of fundamental human rights in Germany. They receive massive support from local citizens and make political demonstrations, hunger strikes, create a media buzz. The winter is cold, but the spirit of resistance fuels the movement. Four activists speak about the circumstances in English and French.
