Five Days Grace

Alaa, a Syrian refugee stuck in Beirut has only 5 days to fix his application for Europe – or stay and live a life as an illegal in Beirut, with the ever present risk of immediate deportation back to a war zone. With no stable job opportunities, a dwindling cash supply and a few questionable friendships, will young Alaa do anything to leave a city that has taken more Syrian refugees than any other?
