Helden van de Galaxy
2026, 60 minutes
A magical-realist youth documentary series that follows children from around the world living aboard the cruise ship MS Galaxy, temporarily repurposed as an asylum seekers’ center.
Surrounded by the surreal contrast of a lavish cruise liner turned refuge, Abdullatif, Nour, Laila, and Basel navigate an uncertain future while searching for connection and belonging.
Amid the uncertainty of displacement and the challenges of integration, they find comfort in the stories and memories they carry from home. Stories that keep their sense of wonder and hope alive.
