reflection

Take the time to think about the documentary you have just watched.

• What is your initial reaction to the show?
• My initial reaction to the show was that this wasnt just an entertainment show, this was quite a significant reality check, and that it was not going to be an easy breeze of a show. These people were to be put in the real, brutal conditions of various different refugees conditions. That this show was going to be a considerable insight of the refugee life.
