Why do so many people from the Middle East become refugees? With a legendary European journalist, I investigate the long-term effects of western interference in countries where war never ends.
With 40 years of experience in the Middle East, TV reporter Ulrich Tilgner returns to the conflict zones in Afghanistan, Iraq and Rojava in Syria. Together we meet witnesses, survivors and resistants to war and oppression. They want to stay in their homeland, but many have to leave. I question my own convictions and perspectives, being confronted with the consequences of US and European implications in this circle of violence. In these ongoing wars, women make the biggest sacrifices. But women also play an essential role in the hope for a self-determined society.
