Prisoners of Fate

Switzerland 2023 | 100 minutes | Farsi, German, Swiss German | Hebrew, English subtitles

Immigrants from Iran and Afghanistan are trying to recuperate from their difficult journey to the West, from loved ones left behind, and from an uncertain future. The film accompanies them in their daily lives in shared apartments in Switzerland, while they get used to the new, grieve what was left in their homeland, and continue to hope for a better future. The movement between sadness and happiness, between the tragic and the grotesque, is the movement of their lives, and they survive it with solidarity and friendship.
