This first year, from suffering to freedom, bears witness to the rebirth of a liberated country.  Surreal Syria, through the eyes of survivors of Sednaya, Adra, Mezze, and other Syrian prisons, tells the story of the dark cells, the lost years, and the endless wait of the faces hanging on the walls.

His homosexuality and curiosity guide him through encounters that lead into the shadowy, liberated circles of a pre-AIDS era, caught between conservatism and sexual freedom.

The ruin pub phenomenon in Budapest jolted the city to life like an explosion in the early 2000s. The capital, which had flourished and buzzed with culture at the turn of the century, was levelled in an instant by the Second World War. The people living here had to start from scratch, and through perseverance and determination, the city once again began to thrive—only to slide toward decline once more. Budapest exists within this cycle, and the ruin pub is part of it, encapsulating a sense of permanence built from the ruins of Eastern Europe.
