Part I 

“The Dublin Pitfall” is a documentary addressing the consequences of the Syrian refugees’ migration to Europe. The film narrates the struggle of individuals who made the perilous journey of leaving their homes fleeing war only to face harsher conditions in their host country. The film was shot during a three-week trip across Bulgaria in April 2014. The director, Morocco’s Rime El-Jadidi, worked as a one-woman band on a tiny budget, relying on the hospitality and help of Bulgarians and Syrians to make this film.
