Serbia – Camped in the woods (Episode 4)

Tales from the Border Episode Four takes us to an informal migrant camp in the woods not far from the Serbian border with Romania. Here we meet a group of men – most from Syria or Iraq – who have decided to leave the official camps to squat in an abandoned house in the forest.

While they cook over a campfire the men talk about how the police and army from various countries work to push them back, and the trials of their journeys after leaving their home countries.
