Summary:

"In March 2016 a young Kurd, Sartep Namiq, came to Berlin from Iraq, hoping for a better future. His first 12 months in the city were a challenge, living in the emergency shelter for refugees with 900 others in a hangar in the former Tempelhof airport. How would things work out for him and those around him? Then Sartep heard of the New Patrons program, which supports people in creating unusual projects, and he had an idea! Sartep's concept was to have artists transform the refugee accommodation at Tempelhof Airport into a fantastical city, through an original comic book. He envisioned a tale of science fiction, that encapsulates the need of the residents to create a better world for themselves, one in which their dreams and wishes unfold freely and their skills and abilities are put to good use."--Page 81
