Janus' Legacy: Refugee Passage to Europe (2017)

The documentary film "Janus' Legacy: Refugee Passage to Europe" focuses on the 2015 refugee flow from Turkey to Greece. This flow included refugees from various Asian and African countries, originally landing on the Greek islands of Northern Aegean, and having a single final goal: to move to countries of the EU having a developed economy and sufficient reception infrastructures (e.g. Germany, England, Sweden, etc.). During this route, Greece served as "a first reception area" and an intermediate station inside the European Union. "Janus' Legacy" is not attempting to present the 2015 refugee flow as an extraordinary or isolated "event", but rather as a case-study reflecting a serious "distortion" of the ethical, political and economic order in large areas of Asia and Africa, leading to continuous waves of desperate people, who are entitled to be treated according to the principles defined by the United Nations, and the principles imposed by the essence of humanity, and whose disposal will affect equally those deprived of the rights deriving from these principles and those responsible for this practice.
