'Love at First Sight': What are the Odds?
The initial reaction and review of Netflix's newly released romantic comedy featuring Haley Lu Richardson and Ben Hardy. Spoilers included!
Welcome to Redugeestan
Around 17 million people worldwide live in so-called refugee camps – a virtual country with a population equivalent to that of the Netherlands. But this country is not marked on any map in the world. The film describes everyday life in refugee camps – for example in Kenya, Tanzania, Jordan, and on the Greek-Macedonian border. The film shows the absurd state of emergency that prevails in these camps, which is everyday life for the people there – some of whom will spend their entire lives there. The film also critically examines the work of non-governmental organizations and the United Nations Refugee Agency UNHCR, which organize and run the camps. The desire to help people is countered by a system that has nothing else in mind but to keep those in need away from the rich countries of the world at all costs.
