When war broke out in Syria, Dounia, aged 6, had to go into exile with her grandparents. She leaves Aleppo for Greece with a few magic seeds in her hand. Drawing strength from the tales and legends of her homeland, Dounia makes the journey to a new world. A philosophical and poetic tale of resilience, which allows us to tackle the issue of refugee camps from a child’s point of view.
