Nema problema
No problem, that is the motto with which twenty-six refugees from Serbia, Bosnia and Croatia start their new life in Chile. They are welcomed by cheering local residents and a large group of journalists. In a show programme on television, one of them is even reunited with the woman he had to leave behind earlier. But gradually, in small steps that are carefully registered by the directors, the new homeland Chile turns out to be more and more disappointing. The refugees feel cheated by the UNHCR, they fail to find a job and they consider their houses too small. In the course of one year, the tone hardens. Some of them do manage and try to build up a new life with a flat and a job, but the majority decide to go back to former Yugoslavia. They have not made any progress – except that now they complain in Spanish.
