Since 2016, Europe has been grappling with the wrongly named refugee crisis,"but let's be real, it was more like a crisis of how they received these folks. Nowhere was this mess more visible than on the shores of the Aegean Sea, with those haunting images of folks crowded into refugee camps on Greek islands.

I spent six months deep in the trenches, living and breathing the daily grind inside one of those camps, up north near the Greek-Macedonian border.

This project narrates how it is mostly women, from origins as far away from each other as Congo or Palestine, who sustain the day-to-day life in the camp. They organize themselves to take care of the little ones, to cook, to look for medicines, and to try to maintain sociability despite the unfair and infamous conditions they have to live in.
