This 60-second film  switches between the stories of Ahmed, 12, from Damascus in Syria, and Harry, 92, from Berlin, Germany. During the film, the two tell their individual stories of being forced to flee their homes and their harrowing journeys in search of safety. Despite being separated by over 80 years, the two stories contain many similarities, and the film interposes footage of Syrian refugees with historical footage from World War II.
