Frozen Out: the US interpreters abandoned on Europe’s border - The Guardian

Documentary

-

Ahmad and Mati served the US military as interpreters during the war in Afghanistan, but like many others who did so, they haven’t been granted visas to emigrate to the US. With their lives threatened by the Taliban, they joined migrants heading for western Europe only to find themselves trapped in Serbia on the wrong side of impenetrable borders.

Director Max Duncan, Exec Produced by The Guardian, Producer Alice Aedy.
