This film raises issues and concerns that occur among refugees where they are given restrictions to access certain things. Their status as refugees is their reason for being given certain restrictions. But they are also human, they have potential, talent in their respective fields but cannot be channeled because of the limitations given. This tends to make them lazy and not passionate in living the days during the refugee camp.

But through this film, they are made aware that destiny is not a problem but with the presence of gratitude and using everything they have is able to make everything more lifeness. Dreams and passion are the foundation in enjoying life. If developing a small good thing that is owned is far more beneficial than blaming an endless destiny.
