JUNGLE, A MODERN ODYSSEE is a duology about mass migration. Two stories with one destination, London. Part one tells the story of three strangers forced to flee their homes who are thrown together in the back of a truck. They pass the time on this unusual road trip by sharing their stories, hopes and dreams. In part two we encounter a high spirited, ambitious Syrian refugee who is caught up in the notorious refugee camp, the Jungle in Calais, where he finds an unlikely friend in his cynical tent mate. By day they encounter the unwritten laws of the Jungle, whilst at night they risk their lives finding a route to the ‘promised land’.
