storage room. Not (meant) for humans to live in. But it is war, and people
need any shelter (they can find) to continue their life. 0031: (S) TC: 00:05:11:14-00:05:14:07 كان كتير

choice. But I don’t like them to feel depressed. 0035: (M) TC: 00:05:33:20-00:05:41:00 I talk to my kids. This is just temporary. I give

مغلق 0051: (M) TC: 00:08:01:15- 00:08:16:01 When I come out, I find big car. My neighbour with
me at that time. Believe me, when I see them, I begin crying because their
beards, their - this like (hand gesture) – black one. 0052: (M) TC: 00:08:18:14-00:08:31:07 And he told me: “we need your sister’s husband.”
This made me very afraid. They talk with someone on walkie-talkie. And he
tell him: “Send her to prison.” 0053: (M) TC: 00:08:32:07-00:08:40:19 My neighbour became very angry, and he called his
friends to come. And he tells me: “go with these friends”. And he helped me
to escape. 0054: (M) TC: 00:08:43:09-00:08:55:03 These criminal, bad people, they become very angry,
and they want to take revenge. I came back to Damascus, but – at that time –
I am destroyed. 0055: (M) TC: 00:08:57:09-00:09:09:12 I think that these bad people live far away. And
that they will not know where I am living. Because I escaped from them… Until
one day, they send to me where I am living with my kids. Message on mobile-screen: TC: 00:09:04:11-00:09:19:15 [”I know where your home is. You live in al-Mazzeh above the library"]
0056: (M) TC: 00:09:15:17-00:09:24:13 And they tell me: “if you will not participate with
us, then we will kill you… and we will kill your kids.” 0057: (M) TC: 00:09:28:19-00:09:31:12 Something suddenly changed all my life. 0058: (S) TC: 00:09:32:18-00:09:35:16 حكيت

encourage me to go to Europe. 0063: (S) TC: 00:10:09:05-00:10:11:16 هي
إنجبرت
لتطلع 0064: (M) TC: 00:10:18:13-00:10:37:08 I wake up 4 o’clock in the morning, and usually my
son sleeps on my hand. He (did) wake up, and he started to catch me. He
doesn’t want me to leave. And he started to follow me… They don’t want me to
go… 0065: (K) TC: 00:10:51:06-00:10:53:10 ماما
سافرت بس ما
بعرف بأي سنة 0066: (M) TC: 00:11:02:05-00:11:10:09 All the way to Turkey, I am crying. Because I leave
my kids. But the journey is too dangerous for them. 0067: (M) TC: 00:11:20:05-00:11:27:17 In Turkey, I find this smuggler waiting for me, and
the first question he asks me about; (was) the money. 0068: (M) TC: 00:11:33:05-00:11:45:24 And then we are in small boat. From this small boat
to big ship, there is rope. And we must catch this rope, and somebody, like,
(hand gestures) took us. 0069: (M) TC: 00:11:50:10-00:12:03:11 When I enter, I feel (like) I can’t breathe. I want
to throw up, but I fell down. I don’t recognize anything around me. 0070: (M) TC: 00:12:08:08-00:12:24:17 And then, I hear the people say: “we are now in
Italy.” And I go outside. All the people are happy. But I have mixed
emotion(s). Because I don’t know the future of my kids. 0071: (M) TC: 00:12:28:16-00:12:34:04 Now I enter in details, and I feel all my body – I
don’t want to remember. 0072: (M) TC: 00:12:42:23-00:13:07:17 I asked people, tell me, “where is the train
station?”, and I continue my way. I go to Milano. I see all the people
gathering around big tree, and they write their wishes. I ask for a piece of
paper, and I write “I wish to see my kids again”, and I put this paper under
the tree. 0073: (M) TC: 00:13:09:00-00:13:29:17 From Milano I take a train to Hamburg. And in
Hamburg I take bus, and I go to Copenhagen. I go to police station, and I
tell him, like, I am from Syria, and the first word(s) they tell me: “Welcome
in Denmark”. This makes me… Yes, thank you very much. 0074: (S) TC: 00:13:49:02-00:13:57:16 هي مو
معنا, و قضيت
وقت طويل
وانا دير
بالي على أخي
و على أختي 0075: (M) TC: 00:13:59:10-00:14:07:02 I explain to my kids: “after the interview, then
direct, they will help you. “Just mum, when is your interview?”. 0076: (S) TC: 00:14:08:20-00:14:19:13 قلها إنو

do something useful until my kids come to me. I work as a volunteer, I helped the Red Cross in translation, I help in
job center. 0078: (S) TC: 00:14:39:19-00:14:47:01 كانت
فترة طويلة
بالنسبة الي,
ما حد بقدر
يغطي وجودي 0079: (M) TC: 00:14:50:08-00:15:07:02 At that time, there is a rocket explosion inside
the school of my daughter. Many friends of her died. So they stopped to go to
school. They just talk to me, waiting (for) something to change their lives. 0080: (S) TC: 00:15:08:22-00:15:13:19 و

أخواتي صغار 0082: (M) TC: 00:15:27:19-00:15:36:21 I’m just waiting (for) my interview. And they give
me interview after three months. 0083: (M) TC: 00:15:42:14-00:15:59:19 The problem (was) that before my interview, I am
waiting a long time. They tell me “we are so busy”. And they postpone my
interview to another two months. As if they don’t know that I’m human, I’m
(a) mother. My kids are waiting (for) me, and I need to save them. 0084: (M) TC: 00:16:04:04-00:16:12:03 Finally, I make my interview. They tell me, “we will
give you answer in one month. Maximum”. 0085: (S) TC: 00:16:13:15-00:16:18:19 أجاني
تهديد على
موبايلي 0086: (M) TC: 00:16:18:21-00:16:21:22 The same who threatened me, he started to call my

بسببو 0090: (M) TC: 00:16:41:19-00:16:48:20 Here in Denmark, they tell me, “one month maximum”.
And I’m waiting and waiting. Maybe six months, and nothing… 0091: (M) TC: 00:16:53:08-00:17:24:09 Until they give me other appointment for second
interview. She asked me the same question(s). And I answered the same. And I
started to tell her, “please, give me any answer, because my kids (are)
waiting (for) me. I promised my kids, after three months, four months
maximum, to give me answer. After like one week, they gave me my paper.
“Temporary protection.” But I know (that) this paragraph means that I cannot
do family reunification. 0092: (M) TC: 00:17:31:24-00:17:46:24 My kids don’t understand what the meaning of
“temporary protection” (is). They came and asked me, “what is the meaing?”. I
can’t explain this to my son, he’s 8 years-old: “because you are from Syria,
you can’t come legal way”. 0093: (K) TC: 00:17:50:08-00:17:53:02 المشكلة

information. 0117: (M) TC: 00:21:54:07-00:22:04:23 It’s my fault. I told them to escape. The Red Cross
in Turkey and Greece, start to send to me photos of dead people. 0118: (M) TC: 00:22:11:11-00:22:25:13 Maybe my kids are with them. I can’t find any words
for the anguish, I felt. Total depression. All these people; dead. 0119: (M) TC: 00:22:27:12-00:22:38:04 I forget if I eat or no. If I drink or not. I lose
my weight. (I) become very miserable. Mad woman. I don’t know. 0120: (M) TC: 00:22:40:06-00:22:47:24 Sure, I will not continue my life. Because I don’t
know if my kids is alive, or if they died. 0121: (M) TC: 00:22:52:21-00:23:00:00 At that time, I communicated with the press, with,
everytime the mobile, with my hand. Just like to know, “where is my kids?” 0122: (M) TC: 00:23:01:08-00:23:15:09 And then, this one picture appeared. There is a boy.
It seems like my son, Karam. The same colour of skin and brown curly hair.
But he is dead. 0123: (S) TC: 00:23:19:23-00:23:29:18 الناس

that fisherman find them, saving them. All of them (a)live. Yes, all of them
alive! 0128: (M) TC: 00:24:25:00-00:24:34:10 I tell you my feeling – as a mother – that lost 10
days, I don’t know - and suddenly - I find hope. I find my kids again. 0129: (M) TC: 00:24:38:17-00:24:50:02 But how to get my kids to safety? The only thing I
can do, is to contact the smuggler again. I must ask my children to try
again. 0130: (S) TC: 00:24:57:23-00:25:04:17 الرحلة

SUBTITLES TRANSCRIPT. <beginning of film> 0005 (K): TC: 00.01.38.02-00.01.42.10 Once we went on a journey to the sea - and I even took my Teddy Bear with me. 0006: (S) TC: 00:01:43:16-00:01:50:16 The best days of my life I spent in Syria by the
sea. 0007: (K) TC: 00:01:55:21-00:02:00:02 My favourite memory is when my mother bought me a
beachtoy. 0008: (J) TC: 00:02:01:04-00:02:06:02 At night, sitting by the sea. The sky looks
fantastic. 0009: (J) TC: 00:02:07:14-00:02:10:08 The smell of the sea is so beautiful. 0010: (S) TC: 00:02:11:08-00:02:14:03 I totally adore it. 0012: (S) TC: 00:02:28:02-00:02:30:22 Frankly, I love this house so much. 0013: (J) TC: 00:02:34:10-00:02:37:19 I love my Barbie dolls the most. 0014: (K) TC: 00:02:41:13-00:02:44:08 We used to play hide and
seek at home. 0015: (J) TC: 00:02:48:23-00:02:54:10 We had our small turtle. It was living on the
balcony. 0016: (K) TC: 00:02:54:11-00:03:00:07 Yes, our lovely pet, Zaizafoni. 0017: (S) TC: 00:03:02:14-00:03:07:24 Until now, life is comfortable and I am happy. 0020: (S) TC: 00:03:44:21-00:03:48:08 Suddenly, an expolsion happened. 0022: (S) TC: 00:03:56:06-00:04:02:01 Because of the pressure from the explosion – Suddenly now, the window came out. 0024: (K) TC: 00:04:08:06-00:04:10:18 I don’t remember anything. 0026: (S) TC: 00:04:20:04-00:04:26:02 I saw events in the news, but the events that I
witnessed were much more terrifying. 0027: (J) TC: 00:04:27:07-00:04:29:14 What happened was really not nice at all. 0029: (K) TC: 00:04:46:08-00:04:51:05 I remember something – we took our turtle,
Zaizafoni, with us. 0031: (S) TC: 00:05:11:14-00:05:14:07 It was so ugly, so bad. 0033: (J) TC: 00:05:23:18-00:05:25:18 It was so disgusting. 0036: (J) TC: 00:05:44:08-00:05:46:14 My Barbies are still back home. 0037: (S) TC: 00:05:48:04-00:05:53:11 We were hoping the war would end soon, so we could
go back home. 0038: (J) TC: 00:05:56:03-00:05:57:22 Hopefully… I would be so happy. 0039: (S) TC: 00:06:01:12-00:06:02:24 But… That didn’t happen. 0041: (M) TC: 00:06:32:22- 00:06:37:15 This is our front door… This is the entrance. 0042: (M) TC: 00:06:39:12-00:06:42:15 Is it filming? Oh, I was not. 0043: (M) TC: 00:06:50:02-00:06:56:23 This is the kitchen ceiling. It has fallen down. (Anon): it has been bombed, not
fallen. 0044: (M) TC: 00:07:03:21-00:07:08:03 This is the balcony… Completely destroyed. 0045: (M) TC: 00:07:12:22-00:07:16:16 The next room… Smashed. 0046: (M) TC: 00:07:21:02-00:07:26:23 What happened here? The whole room is gone here.
Devastated. 0047: (M) TC: 00:07:27:09-00:07:33:06 The kid’s room is completely destroyed. The ceiling is destroyed. The walls are gone. 0048: (M) TC: 00:07:45:17-00:07:47:17 This was the kid’s bedroom. These were their schoolbags. 0049: (M) TC: 00:07:47:01-00:07:49:03 This is how our house looks now. 0050: (S) TC: 00:07:51:08-00:07:57:13 We were waiting for her. We were calling her. But
her phone was dead. 0058: (S) TC: 00:09:32:18-00:09:35:16 She just said: “the situation is dangerous.” 0059: (S) TC: 00:09:39:12-00:09:45:20 She said: “I prefer to leave. It is safer for all of
us.” 0061: (J) TC: 00:09:57:14-00:10:01:03 “We will be happy there. The schools are nice.” 0063: (S) TC: 00:10:09:05-00:10:11:16 Well, she was forced to leave… 0065: (K) TC: 00:10:51:06-00:10:53:10 Mom left, but I can’t remember when it was… 0074: (S) TC: 00:13:49:02-00:13:57:16 I was getting very unhappy, that she wasn’t with us.
It was a long time without her… In the meantime, I had to take care of my
siblings. 0076: (S) TC: 00:14:08:20-00:14:19:13 She said, “Just wait. It might be this month or the
next one.“ But she didn’t know, she had no idea. 0078: (S) TC: 00:14:39:19-00:14:47:01 But it was becoming a very long period for me, and
no one can cover her absence. 0080: (S) TC: 00:15:08:22-00:15:13:19 The responsibility on me was huge… For sure. 0081: (S) TC: 00:15:19:05-00:15:28:16 It was the hardest part of my life… Because I’m
young, and my siblings are even younger. 0085: (S) TC: 00:16:13:15-00:16:18:19 At the same time – I started getting phone calls
with threats. 0087: (S) TC: 00:16:22:02-00:16:29:02 I asked several times who he was. He didn’t answer
but threatened me. Threatened with kidnapping and killing. 0089: (S) TC: 00:16:33:24-00:16:40:06 It was then I realized why she had left. 0093: (K) TC: 00:17:50:08-00:17:53:02 I can’t explain. Because I’ve forgotten everything… 0094: (S) TC: 00:17:55:05-00:17:56:23 No, no family reunification. 0096: (K) TC: 00:18:11:00-00:18:14:08 My brain doesn’t understand why I’m there. 0098: (S + J + K) TC: 00:18:35:21-00:18:49:00 S: We tried our best to be quick. J: I only took a small bag with my drawings – to
show them to mom. K: I remember I brought nothing – only my Teddy
Bear. 0100: (S) TC: 00:19:04:19-00:19:07:13 I talked with her several times. 0102: (J) TC: 00:19:14:06-00:19:17:19 I wanted her to see my drawings. When I drew them,
she wasn’t there. 0103: (J) TC: 00:19:23:23-00:19:26:04 “You will be happy”, she repeated. 0104: (S) TC: 00:19:27:17-00:19:30:21 But we had also heard about many drowning accidents. 0105: (S) TC: 00:19:32:18-00:19:36:23 Despite the risk… We wanted to cross and get there. 0106: (J) TC: 00:19:42:12-00:19:46:15 My drawings – I kept them in a plastic bag, so that
they wouldn’t get wet. 0107: (K) TC: 00:19:53:08-00:20:05:02 We took a boat to Greece. There were so many people
in the boat, and it was such a small boat. 0109: (K + S) TC: 00:20:14:01-00:20:21:00 K: Then the waves were as
high as me. S: People were terrified and
started panicking. 0111: (S + J) TC: 00:20:40:20- 00:20:45:08 S: In the first attempt, we capsized. J: We sank. 0112: (J) TC: 00:20:59:01-00:21:04:23 I only kept the drawings, and threw my bag away. I
didn’t want them to get lost. They’re for me mom. 0113: (S + J) TC: 00:21:06:07-00:21:19:15 S: People were screaming horribly. J: We are sinking, and people around us are dying.
But I was only focused on my siblings. 0114: (S) TC: 00:21:27:12-00:21:32:00 After two hours in the sea, there was no hope for
anyone to stay alive. 0123: (S) TC: 00:23:19:23-00:23:29:18 Among us, there were infants, some of them were not
even a month old… Sadly, they died… 0124: (K) TC: 00:23:36:15-00:23:42:12 We capsized. But lucky us. A fishing boat rescued us
and took us to a big ship. 0125: (J) TC: 00:23:43:05-00:23:49:08 It was a high warship, hard to climb. But
eventually, we made it. 0126: (S + J) TC: 00:23:50:11-00:23:58:12 S: Then they imprisoned us
for 8 days in Turkey. J: We couldn’t sleep and got
no food. 0130: (S) TC: 00:24:57:23-00:25:04:17 The trip was exhausting. Extremely scary. We feared
drowning again. 0132: (S) TC: 00:25:15:10-00:25:26:23 We succeeded and arrived in Greece. We passed
Macedonia, Serbia, Slovenia, Croatia, Austria. 0133: (S) TC: 00:25:31:20-00:25:35:21 After arriving in Denmark, we were detained. 0135: (K + J) TC: 00:25:42:12-00:25:53:14 K: We kept looking out the window. J: Karam was the first to see her. K: I told Joudi, look, it’s mom! And then she
entered, I shouted, “Mom!. Mom!”. 0137: (S) TC: 00:26:10:19-00:26:19:12 We were so happy. Not because we arrived in Denmark,
but because we found her. Finally! 0138: (J + S) TC: 00:26:20:22-00:26:34:19 J: I was so happy when I met my mom. We hugged and
cried. S: We were looking into eachother’s eyes. We were
laughing, together. “Finally, I see you. I can talk to you.” 0140 (J) TC: 00:26:38:09-00:26:49:15 Mom means everything in my life. She is my mom, my
friend, my sister. I love her so much, she means everything to me. She’s my
role model. 0142: (M) TC: 00:27:15:17-00:27:17:15 How do you say “carrot” in Danish? 0143: (S) TC: 00:27:18:04-00:27:19:04 Carrot. 0144: (S) TC: 00:27:21:05-00:27:24:00 - What does the rabbit eat? - Rabbit. 0145: (K + S) TC: 00:27:25:22-00:27:27:21 K: Carrot. S: (Yes), carrot! 0146: (M) TC: 00:27:18:12-00:27:18:11 You found it! 0147: (S) TC: 00:27:30:04-00:27:32:13 May God protect him. A “genius”. 0148: (M) TC: 00:27:32:20-00:27:36:13 Finished already? Now the next page. 0149: (K) TC: 00:27:41:16-00:27:51:19 After mom came to Denmark, we followed her. That’s
all that I remember. But when are we going home? <end
