10 years Summer of migration – Videos

As part of the transnational chain of action a series of videos is in production. From middle of September on every week one or more new clips will be published, each including two voices: on one hand a still active supporter from the aegean or along the Balkan, on the other hand a person, who made it by him- or herself through the route and is living now since 10 years in a destination city. Reflections from the various experiences are combined and connected to recall and to reflect the summer of migration in 2015, but also to think about future perspectives.

The videos are produced by Ruì Díaz from the Fish in Water Film project in Berlin. He visited in July 2025 again several contested spaces from 2015 for new interviews, while he also met and talked to various protagonists from this historical breakthrough against the EU border regime. The video project is advised by members from the network Welcome to Europe and financially supported by medico international and Forschungsgesellschaft Flucht und Migration.
