Afghanistanbul finds Sewab besieged in a neighbourhood marked for gentrification, illegally employed in the recycling sector, deliberating what to do next on his journey to Europe.
Per their wishes, the undocumented asylum seekers featured in this poignant short are not identified, but they are given a voice. Empathetically detailing their struggles in a Turkish neighborhood destined for renewal, Afghanistanbul is a ground-level portrait of hope amid community tensions.
