santa. now i have to turn around. i have this shiny. now. as muscle to have that done oh montanus is she. under the skin of what is then the one hand palm is a hobby and the mosquitoes you know to mean that in she. saud a mother of four is a refugee in germany after her husband was badly injured in an isis attack in iraq

she had to flee the country with her children and find safety in europe. trying. to. look the way i suppose so many others before and since getting to safety was difficult and sometimes dangerous thank i want it so i do what. i want i should see on your side and i let them know. this guy was all she had meant about him until kid. didn't want. john anymore how tough he did then moved and then did so he didn't you know i don't think. now so i don't have family i settled in debts mold a small city in north west in germany and would often i'm. one have bit all my land there he had

a buffer so it. must it that been here at least under the stress of this him six months this is going to be. since twenty foot team germany has taken in more than one and a half million refugees. the majority from the middle east and north africa. upon arrival most are assigned to a new town by the german government selected according to its population size and the standard of living. as a school does a slender d.z. . on distance to no desire to get on the scar. of a sudden he raised his start and i lined us to see our factories it was going to be a kind of the border they think if you don't go on this particular one is with your . debt with around seventy thousand inhabitants was asked to

accept seven hundred migrants equivalent to about one percent of its population. the initial public response was cautious we started to give you some of my good and figure but that's hard to get. my family through feel of mention of naming on teams of british soccer and the bush team think it ends every two weeks i think there's another. tell us. and when we don't have each other then. it's i don't know it doesn't have a sense and. but as the refugees arrived detmold reacted positively to its new residents in large part because of the concerted efforts of integration made by the municipality the aim then and since has been to encourage as much interaction possible between the locals and the refugees through social events goodbyes by the

authorities. cafe welcome is just one example where anyone can come forward and ask questions over was their concerns and we had people asking things like why do they come here and they claim our money but they have the newest smart they're supposed to be poor so it's an idea if they're actually supposed to be poor otherwise they can't be refugees you need to have someone who is who is responding to those sort of questions and does give you the facts that you need to know and i think in that way we still experience a very privileged position because a lot of the population of that night really has said we want to make this work and we really want to be a city that welcomes refugees. one result of this imaginative integration process is that saw the whole children have

discovered a new passion. for acting. they're part of a drama group called fragile theater drawn mainly from refugees. to professional performers marianne from france and her german friend roots who run the project so i was on. the group has been brought together in this who paid for by the local authority to rehearse for a forthcoming public performance. i. to put this in. to go to. get money at. the group

is going to be performing a piece inspired by their own stories you know just. count . them one. because they're. going to. do. things. on the. side. so. to do.

and they will know that i like to play but there i see myself just something. you can see me and me smiling and talking in people are mean they're loving and you are joking but after all of this it's like drama when i'm alone sometimes i. so when i play with people it just makes me forget. thirty three year old emmanuel jerome comes originally from south sudan and has been in detmold for two and a half years. but his future is uncertain. unable to return home because his life is still at risk he plied for asylum eighteen months ago and is still waiting to hear whether he'll be allowed to stay in germany . in the meantime he's been relying on the charity of others and lives in this

apartment in a retirement home owned by a local church. maybe i'm the lucky to be useful. chairman of. the house when a firm church for supporting everyone is there for. even i could feel like a lot. result in working with anything. sort of. he was forced to leave his family a mother and sisters back in sudan a country torn apart by war and famine he called bed to display photos of them in his apartment. here. it's so hard to look at them and been six years without seeing them. even to talk with a wonderful sometimes facial i mean is there so much i want to talk to them about

when i was doing well why did i call so like i because i don't want to hear what is happening and of them we never talk even when to call us we are just crying. she's crying my mother saying i'm crying i'm not. i knew. mario and the director of the drama group has come to visit. this year should he says here yeah in preparation for the performance marianne wants to find out more about how emanuel came to germany each of us and how he's been managing since he got to detmold his story along with those of the other refugee actors will be woven into the script i think that's because you know being a city it's hard to must i think it could i just saw i think the time when yeah that doesn't just sound that decision to the new but his but what does it mean for

you safety for. safety is like a place where all the susi general feel you feel that there is a lot of people people who love you around you if there is a look of all who love your own show you don't feel safe. we are people we are you know we are all the same that's why we come to europe because we feel that in europe that is all right it's not like people are different of people and to have different color different country or disk risk and this was the will of the we feel that here is that is you were right so we feel like if you come here we're going to be safe. emmanuel isn't the only one who's being encouraged to make his voice heard through the theater so i was also keen to show how a positive experience of arrival in germany gratitude at the welcome has received. even the thoughts of home and

a never far away i cannot say. oh hi there was any of. those she knows that in comparison to other refugees she and her children a fortunate they come from one of the five countries given priority status by the german states iraq syria iran eritrea and so malia their applications are processed more rapidly and help is provided more quickly upon their arrival the family were housed briefly in an abandoned military base before being moved to more permanent accommodation the city pays their rent and the cost of heating. up almost the same detail how much of the n.b.a. . was going on to him that i was to call it and. so on early on. in addition to the housing so i had receives around one thousand euros a month to support.
