We invite you to a screening of the film Stranger in Paradise (2016) from this year's One World Festival, which will be followed by a debate on the topic of migration to Europe. The film focuses on questions often faced by immigrants coming to Europe: What do you really want from Europe? Is Europe just a paradise where you can freely pick its fruits? Belgian actor Valentijn Dhaenens, who plays the role of a mentor in the documentary, confronts them with various model reactions from Europeans to their arrival.
